Credit By Departmental ExaminationStudents who are enrolled in K-State courses may petition a K-State department for permission to attempt to earn credit for a specific K-State course through a special departmental examination. Credit may be granted for any course with the consent of the head of the department offering credit for that subject. Permission is granted only if the student has prepared for the examination. The examination must be taken under the supervision of the head of the department in which the course is given. Credit earned by special examination is considered resident credit.
Credit by examination may receive letter grades or a notation ``credit'' as determined by the department. Check with your advisor to be certain a course will count to meet a requirement. The graded work will receive grade points to be computed in the student's GPA. Nongraded credit by examination will be treated as graded hours in implementing A/Pass/F policy.
