Testing is one means of evaluating extrainstitutional learning.
Testing methods include institutionally prepared examinations, institutionally administered performance testing, and standardized national tests especially designed for the establishment of credit. Only those courses for which the minimum passing score is attained will be recorded. Advanced Standing Examinations Advanced standing credit can be earned at Southeastern by evaluating a student's previous learning experiences through testing. Most departments offer some courses by examination. Students should consult with the chair of the department offering the course of interest as to whether it can be taken by examination.
