Credit by Examination

Matriculated students with relevant life/work experience who wish to receive credit for courses by taking special examinations, may do so by submitting the appropriate form. The Petition for Course Replacement Form must be submitted online no later than two weeks into the term. A special examination must be taken no later than two weeks after the request is approved. The student will be allowed to take the exam only once. Upon passing the examination, the student will receive credit for the course with such credit noted on the student's transcript. A student failing the exam will be expected to register for the course. Each program determines the maximum number of credits students may obtain by examination.
