Additional Guidelines for Dual Enrollment College Credits

College courses from other institutions will be evaluated on an individual basis. Courses must be at least three-credits, and generally, should be comparable to courses offered at 蘑菇视频. Students must also earn a minimum grade of C-. 蘑菇视频 has established agreements with several local community colleges. If you completed a dual enrollment course at one of these institutions, you may wish to view a course comparison list.

Additional Guidelines for International Baccalaureate Exams

International Baccalaureate exam scores are evaluated on an individual basis. 蘑菇视频 only grants credit for higher level (HL) exams and generally requires a score of at least 5 on most exams.

Additional Opportunities for Credit

Students interested in the possibility of receiving either credit by examination from an academic department or credit through the College Level Examination Program (CLEP) should first consult the undergraduate catalog for pertinent policies and procedures.

Advanced Placement Credit Policies

Students seeking advanced placement must take the College Board Advanced Placement (AP) Examination(s) in the subject(s) involved. Only the results of the first administration of each Examination can be considered as a basis for granting credit, i.e., students may not retake exams until they achieve a satisfactory score. In addition, all examination results to be considered for advanced placement and/or credit are to be submitted prior to the applicant's matriculation in 蘑菇视频.

In all other subjects, the AP exam in question is evaluated by the pertinent academic department that recommends whether advanced placement and/or credit should be awarded.
