MTH 110 will not fulfill the math requirement.
The completion of this certificate allows students to sit for state only examination for funeral directing. This academic program is designed to meet specific state or professional needs. It is not accredited by the American Board of Funeral Service Education. Students graduating from this program will not have the academic credentials for licensure in states where graduation from an ABFSE accredited program is required.
All short-term certificate program coursework must be completed within three semesters of initial enrollment. Certificate students are not eligible to transfer into the accredited associate degree.
There is a separate application and admission process for the accredited associate degree program. All coursework completed while enrolled in the unaccredited certificate will not count for degree credit if the student later makes application and is selected for admission into the accredited degree option. To be awarded the short-term certificate, the student must complete a graduation application.
All prospective Funeral Service Education students must attend the Mandatory Orientation for the FSE Program. Orientation sessions will be posted on the FSE Website; students are encouraged to call the FSE department directly for additional program information. Any student that fails to attend the mandatory orientation will not be admitted for the semester. If a student attended the mandatory orientation in the past and plans to restart the FSE program, then they must attend the mandatory orientation again. Students must sign a contract for the option they choose. Students are required to leave a voicemail, email, or personal contact with instructors at the college on or before the day of midterm or final exams. No midterm or final exam, no continuation in the FSE Program.
