There are several opportunities to study abroad and receive credit for it. If you are interested in the study abroad program, please visit the Advising Office to get more detailed information about the program. Educational Testing Service offers many exams at sites throughout Connecticut and elsewhere that can be taken for academic credit. The CLEP exams are mainly equivalent to freshman and sophomore courses. By passing an exam with self-study, you can gain more credits in a semester in addition to your regular course work.
Students usually choose an exam in which they already have basic knowledge.
It is beneficial to review practice questions and a text for that particular course. Nothing negative appears on a student's transcript if he or she does not achieve the minimum test score to earn credit. There are also four exams written by Teikyo Post faculty that can be taken for credit - Nutrition, Business Math, Systems Management and Italian 101. The last option is to submit a portfolio for course credit. The portfolio is an option if there is no exam in place and the course lends itself to this format.
