* Placement in ENGL 103H allows the student the possibility
of gaining six hours of credit upon successful completion (a
grade of "C-" or better) of that class; if a student
with an AP score of 4 receives a grade of "D" in ENGL 103H,
the student receives credit for ENGL 101; a student with
an AP score of 3 who receives a grade of "D" in ENGL 103H does
not receive credit for ENGL 101.
+ Placement in LANG 103H allows the student the possibility
of gaining six hours of credit upon successful completion (a
grade of "C-" or better) of that class; if a student
with an AP score of 4 receives a grade of "D" in LANG 103H
the student receives credit for LANG 101; a student with
an AP score of 3 who receives a grade of "D" in LANG 103H does
not receive credit for LANG 101.
A department may excuse a student from taking the beginning
courses in a required sequence of courses if the department determines
the student to be ready for advanced work.
The department may consider performance in secondary school,
scores on the College Entrance Examination Board achievement
or advanced placement tests, or scores on a departmental exam
in determining the student's preparedness. Substitution of a
higher course will not be required.
Exceptionally able and well prepared students may also be awarded
advanced standing credit. These are semester hours which may
be counted toward a degree.
Advanced standing credit is granted to students entering the
College from high school or transferring from another college,
with permission of the department concerned and sufficient scores
on departmental exams covering the full scope and content of
required courses. Consult departmental descriptions for other
requirements.
