  1. A student interested in taking departmental credit examinations may obtain the request forms at the academic department.
  2. A student will have the request form approved by his/her department head, the dean of his/her college, and the head of the department administering the examination.
  3. The University charges a non-refundable fee of $25 per credit examination.
  4. Credit examinations are given on the undergraduate level and on a limited basis in certain graduate degree programs.
  5. Only courses passed will be recorded on the student's record. A grade of P will be given and the course will not be computed in the student's grade point average.
