Credit by Challenge Examination

Registered students may obtain credit for course-specific examinations by procuring a petition from the dean's office in the college of the student's major and by obtaining the appropriate signatures. Credit and grades obtained by examination are not used in determining the load or grade point average for the semester in which the examination is taken; they are used in calculating the accumulative grade point average. When an examination for credit is taken, whatever grade is made is recorded. A student may complete a total of 48 credits by examination toward a degree. The cost of credit by examination is $15 per credit hour payable to the ISU Cashier's Office prior to the examination.
