Credit by Advanced Standing

Noncollegiate Learning Experiences

The University awards credit for educational experiences provided by certain business, industrial and governmental agencies.

Credit is awarded on the basis of recommendations made by the American Council on Education in its publication "The National Guide to Educational Credit for Training Programs" and also by the publication "College Credit Recommendations: The Directory of the National Program on Noncollegiate Sponsored Instruction."

Students may present certificates of completion or a transcript from the ACE Registry of Credit Recommendations to the Office of Admissions for evaluation.

The grade of S (satisfactory) is assigned to all credit awarded in this manner. The dean of the college in which a student will earn a degree at the University will determine how this credit applies toward the degree.
