Prior Learning Credit


Adult students bring a level of experience and knowledge to academic programs that most younger students do not have. The knowledge has been acquired through work, training, or life experiences.

 

We recognize the value of that learning, and award academic credit for it through our Prior Learning program. To learn more, attend one of our scheduled prior learning briefings, view the online prior learning overview, or view our online prior learning briefing presentation.


To pursue college credit for prior learning undergraduate students must have regular admission status, and graduate students must have either conditional or regular admission status. Your academic advisor will be able to answer any questions you might have about using prior learning credit in your program.

 

Prior Learning briefings are currently scheduled in the following locations:
