• Students may not take more than 31 hours of online Distance Education core curriculum and majors hours combined towards an Associate in Arts degree.
• Students may not take more than 62 hours of online Distance Education core curriculum and majors hours combined towards a Bachelors Degree.  The number of required major course hours will vary with major.

You must have a Campbell GPA of 2.0 and completed six semester hours of traditional courses to take online courses. Students must have a functional Campbell University e-mail account and use Web Access.  The Blackboard user name and password is the same as your Web Access user name and password. Students who have registered will be automatically loaded into Blackboard daily (students will not be given access to the class until the Wednesday before the term begins).  Students are limited to a maximum of one DE class (3 or 4 hours) the first term they take an internet class.  Thereafter students may take up to two classes per semester (one per 8-week term).

Students are required to meet individual course prerequisites prior to enrollment for a particular course.  The course description in the catalog contains all prerequisites for a course.  Campbell University reserves the right to limit the number of enrollments per class and to cancel classes with insufficient enrollment.

• A minimum grade point average of 2.000 is required to register for one distance education course. A grade point average of 2.300 or better is required to register for two distance education courses in the same term.

• Majors:  As to courses which are specific to a particular major, no more than 49% of the major courses are to be available through distance education.  The allowable hours may vary because the number of required hours varies among majors.  But the workable guideline is that the total number of semester hours for a major available/ offered through distance education shall not exceed 49%.
