Students should also refer to their Undergraduate Catalog for further information regarding credit-testing eligibility. Students who wish to be examined in a course must petition the appropriate department and their college for permission. Such permission will be granted only if the student presents documented evidence of substantial prior preparation in the subject area. The CBE application must then be approved and signed by the student's college, and by the department administering the test. This process takes approximately ten workdays to complete.
Students schedule a test at a time convenient to both the student and the department.
Students must test within a one-year period of the initial application or they will forfeit their fees and must reapply.
