* The Student Tuition Recovery Fund (STRF) is administered by the California BPPE and applies only to California residents. The STRF fee is currently fifty cents ($.50) per one thousand dollars ($1,000) of institutional charges The State of California established the Student Tuition Recovery Fund (STRF) to relieve or mitigate economic loss suffered by a student in an educational program at a qualifying institution, who is or was a California resident while enrolled, or was enrolled in a residency program, if the student enrolled in the institution, prepaid tuition, and suffered an economic loss. Unless relieved of the obligation to do so, you must pay the state-imposed assessment for the STRF, or it must be paid on your behalf if you are a student in an educational program who is a California resident or are enrolled in a residency program and prepay all or part of your tuition. You are not eligible for protection from the STRF and you are not required to pay the STRF assessment if you are not a California resident or are not enrolled in a residency program.

Entrance Examination: There is no entrance examination required for admission to Anaheim University.
Transfer Credits: To earn a BA in Communications degree at Anaheim University, a student must document the completion of 120 semester units, including a minimum of 30 units completed at Anaheim University. Anaheim University will accept up to 90 semester units awarded by another institution toward the 120 units.
The first 60 of the 90 semester units that may be accepted in transfer are required as part of entrance into the BA in Communications program, and 30 of these 60 must consist of general education courses. General education courses are not associated with a particular field of study and are designed to introduce students to each of the major divisions of formal learning, including written and oral communication; quantitative principles; natural and physical sciences; social and behavioral sciences; and humanities and fine arts.
The remaining 30 of the 90 semester units that may be transferred must align with BA in Communications courses. The entering student will be required to clearly demonstrate the equivalency of these transfer courses through relevant documents (syllabus, catalog, course outline) and justify their acceptance through petition. No course will be considered for transfer with a grade lower than a “C” or its equivalent. There is a fee of $75 for each of these aligned BA in Communications courses, and the overall program cost will be adjusted to reflect credit for the approved class(es).
All petitions for transfer credit must be submitted as part of the student’s initial application to the University. Credits awarded as part of another degree will not be accepted for transfer. Anaheim University has not entered into an articulation or transfer agreement with any other college or university. Official transcripts from the transferring institution are required for transfer credit consideration. Anaheim University reserves the right to request a course catalog and/or syllabus from the granting institution for the year(s) the credit was originally earned.
Prior Experiential Credit:
Credit awarded for experiential or equivalent learning cannot exceed 25 percent (30 units) of the credits required for an undergraduate degree. Anaheim University maintains official documentation of the bases for decisions to award credit for experiential or equivalent learning, following the evaluation standards consistent with CAEL’s Ten Standards for Assessing Learning. Prior learning assessment is performed by the Director, who is qualified with experience in the evaluation of prior learning. These evaluation standards include the following:
- Credit or competencies are awarded only for evidence of learning, not for experience or time spent.
- Assessment is integral to learning because it leads to and enables future learning.
- Assessment is based on criteria for outcomes that are clearly articulated and shared among constituencies.
- The determination of credit awards and competence levels are made by appropriate subject matter and credentialing experts.
- Assessment advances the broader purpose of equity and access for diverse individuals and groups.
- Institutions proactively provide guidance and support for learners’ full engagement in the assessment process.
- Assessment policies and procedures are the result of inclusive deliberation and are shared with all constituencies.
- Fees charged for assessment are based on the services performed in the process rather than the credit awarded.
- All practitioners involved in the assessment process pursue and receive adequate training and continuing professional development for the functions they perform.
- Assessment programs are regularly monitored, evaluated, and revised to respond to institutional and learner needs.
We currently do not accept students who reside in Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Indiana, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Montana, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, and Rhode Island due to regulatory matters. For more information, please call our Vice President of Administrative Affairs at 714-772-3330
