As part of your admission, and depending upon your grades and/or scores, prior coursework from regionally accredited or nationally accredited degree-granting institutions, or the credit earned through a national testing program such as CLEP, DANTES or Advanced Placement may be evaluated and considered for academic credit. If you have had professional training or served in the military, you may be able to convert your training into academic credits.
