What is a LASP "recommended credit"?

LASP does not grant credit directly; rather it serves as an extension campus of the member institutions of the Council for Christian Colleges & Universities.  The program recommends students receive the equivalent of 16-18 semester hours of credit, distributed as follows:

All students receive 6 credits for Spanish Language study and 3 credits for Latin American History, Contemporary Issues and Perspectives.  Credits are generally applied to a student's academic major or minor, and the school's language requirement. The seminar courses correspond to upper-level courses in other areas. While concentrations vary on how credits are divided, credits allocated for every student, regardless of concentration, total 16-18.
