Transfer students should look at the religion requirement as consisting of two
parts: a subject matter requirement and a credit hour requirement. The subject
matter requirement may be completed at BYU, at one of the other Church
Educational System schools, or at an LDS Institute of Religion.
A minimum number of religion credit hours must be completed at BYU, regardless of the
number of religion credit hours completed elsewhere to fulfill the credit hour
requirement according to the following schedule:
| Total Transfer Credits | BYU Religion Hours Required | |
| 0–14.9 | 14 |
