Departmental Credit by Examination Policyprior_learningDepartmental Credit by Examination Policy Any undergraduate student, currently enrolled at SMSU, who has gained knowledge in certain fields through post high school training or experience and who believes they have sufficient knowledge (background information) normally gained through a regular course offered by SMSU, may apply to take a comprehensive examination for credit in that course. SMSU Departments shall have the responsibility for the establishment of criteria to be used in the evaluation of the credit by examination. The departments have the right to accept or reject application for credit by examination. The student is expected to demonstrate a competence comparable to, but not necessarily identical with, that obtained by students receiving credit for the course in the usual manner. Students must be enrolled at SMSU the semester during which the examination is administered and pay a non-refundable fee in advance. This fee is determined by the MinnState Board of Trustees. Credit by examination is not available to students under the following conditions: if they have been previously or are currently enrolled in the course; if they have previously taken the course for audit; or if they have previously taken an examination for the same course. Credit by examination will not be granted for internships, field experiences, independent study, seminar courses, or practice teaching. Credits earned by examination must be awarded by the 40th instructional day of the semester. If not, they will be awarded the following semester. The instructor must use the Credit/No Credit grading system in awarding a grade for credit by examination. There is a 20-credit limitation on the number of credits earned by examination outside the major which a student may apply towards graduation. Credit by examination may not be used as a means to convert CEU’s (Continuing Education Units) to credit. ​Departmental Credit by Examination Procedure Students will contact the department Chairperson and the instructor in the program area where they wish to take the examination to determine if that particular course can be offered by examination. Students will obtain the “Credit by Examination” form from the Registration and Records Office. Students will complete the form as indicated and is responsible for obtaining the required signatures which include those of the instructor and of the Department Chairperson. The instructor will confirm the time and place of the examination. The student will take the form to the Registrar so that eligibility may be determined in accordance with the criteria established under 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 above. Students will take the credit by examination form to Business Services to pay the appropriate, non-refundable examination fee. The number of credits will be the same as the number listed in the regular course schedule for that course. Students will not be allowed to take the examination until the form has been stamped “paid” by Business Services. Students will take the form to the instructor giving the examination at the scheduled time. The instructor will keep the form and enter a Credit or No Credit grade after the examination has been graded. If the grade is No Credit, no entry will be made on the student’s transcript and the student may enroll in the course in order to receive college credit for it.
