Credit by Examination

SAU Tech offers credit by examination for some courses. To request to take this exam, the student will complete the Credit by Examination Request Form located under the Student tab of the MyCollege portal. If the request is approved, the student will pay the appropriate fee, and then the instructor will make arrangements with the student for administering the examination. For written tests, a non-refundable fee of $15 per credit hour must be paid to the Business Office before the test is administered. If the examination includes a practical portion, in addition to the written portion, an extra fee will be charged based upon the length of the practical examination. The receipt for payment must be presented to the individual administering the exam prior to the exam being given. Upon completion of the exam, the instructor completes the Credit by Examination Results form and submits to Registrar. The grade and credit will appear on the student’s transcript.
