Yes, students who wish to place out of a course should consult with the department chairperson of the course in question. Not all courses are subject to credit examination.
If arrangements can be made, a fee of $50.00 is charged for each examination and must be paid to the Student Accounts Office in the John E. Thomas Building. The original receipt must be submitted to the department chair with the Credit by Examination Form before final approval can be given.
Anyone seeking credit by examination must be either degree seeking or taking courses for teacher licensure. Credit by examination cannot be used to repeat a course, nor can it be used to meet the university's residency requirements for graduation.
If the examination is passed, credit without grade will be noted on the student's transcript. If the examination is not passed, no notation is made on the transcript.
