Credit is granted to students who meet the entrance requirements and who matriculate in a program leading to a degree.

Students who have completed work in lower-level courses by examination are urged to consult with a departmental adviser before registering for advanced work in a subject.

Minimum scores have been determined for each exam. For more information on the scores that will be accepted as transfer credit, please contact the Registrar’s Office.

A matriculated full-time student may be eligible to earn credits through any of the above-mentioned examinations upon approval of the registrar.
