Experiential Learning Assessment

Students may apply for and be granted college-level credit for knowledge and understanding related to the student's degree program and gained from worksite or other experiences. Documentation is evaluated for credit by the Department Chair overseeing the area in which credit is sought. The student must submit all appropriate documentation to the Dean of The Global College along with the “Experiential and Non-Credit Learning Assessment” application and the application fee. The Department Chair will complete the evaluation form detailing what, if any, credit should be awarded and then forward the material back to the Dean of The Global College. Upon payment of appropriate fees, the Office of the Registrar will be notified to 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.
