Details:

A candidate for a second bachelor's degree who previously had been awarded a bachelor's degree must complete a minimum of 32 credits in residence which have not counted toward the first bachelor's degree, and must satisfy the requirements of a major other than those taken for the first bachelor's degree. These students will not be eligible for academic honors for the second bachelor's degree, unless the candidate completes at least 48 credits at Saint Francis University pursuant to completion of the second bachelor's degree.

Saint Francis University undergraduate students who are seeking their first bachelor's degree, and desire to complete two majors, one involving the Bachelor of Arts degree and the other the Bachelor of Science, must complete the requirements of each degree program.
