Experiential Learning Assessment

Students may apply for and be granted college-level credit for knowledge and understanding related to the student’s degree program which was gained from work-site or other experiences. The student must work with their Department Chair who oversees the area in which credit is being sought to initiate the paperwork and to pay the assessment fee. The Department will complete the evaluation form detailing what, if any, credit should be awarded. Upon completion of the form, the student must make the appropriate payment with the Business Office for any credit being granted. Upon payment of appropriate fees and receiving the Experiential Learning Assessment paperwork, the Office of the Registrar will post the credit. There is no GPA associated with awarding this type of credit, and is not subject to the maximum of 30 allowable credits for non-traditional credit. The credit awarded will not be posted to the student’s transcript until the student has earned 12 hours of academic credit at Christian Brothers University.
