and/or to cancel programs. Any changes will be made
in accordance with the Commission for Independent
Education rules and regulations. Tuition and costs for
the current year are detailed on page 34, as well as in the

Students may, under certain circumstances, apply to earn

training, and experience. Students who are unsuccessful on
a challenge examination will be required to complete the
corresponding course in order to be awarded credit.
Cancellation and Refund Policy
Cancellation after attendance has begun, through 100%
completion of the program, will result in a pro rata refund
computed on the number of hours completed to the total
program hours. The cancellation and refund policy is detailed
on page 34, as well as in the Student Application.
Grading System
All instruction, skill evaluations, and written assignments
and examinations are conducted in English. Student
progress is evaluated throughout the year. Grades are
assigned to students on either a letter grade or pass/fail
basis, depending on the program and course. Each course’s
grading system is clearly described in the course syllabus
and student workbook.
Transfer Credits and Accreditation
Undergraduate students may transfer up to 30 semester
credits of general education requirements from institutions
accredited by an accrediting organization recognized by the
U.S. Department of Education.
The Barbara Brennan School of Healing in Florida is
licensed by the Florida Department of Education,
Commission for Independent Education to offer a Bachelor
of Science degree in Brennan Healing Science and diplomas

and Brennan Healing Science Advanced Studies Years 1–3.
Presently, BBSH is not accredited. BBSH does not make any
claims regarding the transferability of credits to other
colleges or universities. Transferability of credits is
determined by the receiving institution and is based on a
variety of factors, including course content, accreditation
and licensure.
Interruptions in Training
Make-Up Work
Students are not admitted to Resident Training Classes
without completion of all assigned Integrative Distance
Learning Modules. Students who miss a week of Resident
Training must agree to and sign an Exceptions Form, which
stipulates how and when missed work is to be made up.
Healing Science and Psych-Spiritual Development Skills
missed during an absence may be made up at tutorials
offered during the subsequent Resident Training week.
Tardiness
All students are provided a schedule of class meeting
times and are expected to arrive on time. Students who are
late for a Resident Training week will be marked absent for
those days missed.
Break in Enrollment
Students who experience a break in enrollment, who
have been suspended, or have been dismissed must apply
for readmission. Readmission is not automatic because of
enrollment limitations and changes in academic regulations.
Questions concerning readmission should be directed to
the Registrar and/or Class Dean. (See pages 26–27.)
Absences
Students are required to complete a minimum of four
entire Resident Training weeks per year and may not miss
more than two full weeks during the four years. Students
who are not able to attend a Resident Training class are asked
to notify their Class Dean or Small Class Teacher as soon as
possible before the beginning of class.
