Challenge (credit by examination) is an opportunity for students to demonstrate the mastery of material covered in college courses and receive credit. It involves the taking of special college prepared examinations to demonstrate knowledge and competency. The challenge may not be used to substitute for regular class registration. The purpose is to validate prior learning rather than current learning in progress.

Currently 博天堂官方 has one course challenge available: Medical Terminology I (CRS 131) 3 credits

Students wanting to take the Medical Terminology I challenge must register for it with Testing Services during the first two weeks of a term. The cost is 30% of the current cost per credit hour for the course. The test must be completed by the end of the seventh week of the term it was registered for. The fee is not transferable to another term and a course can only be challenged once. Students cannot be registered for the class if they want to register for the challenge test.

Credits for a course challenge do not count toward required course load for veterans, financial aid recipients and international students.

Final scores will be reported to the student within two weeks of the exam date and results will be reported to the registrar the ninth week of the term.

To begin the process, email testing@dos5.net with your request including your full name and student ID number. We will send you instructions on how to become registered for the challenge.

Students needing to complete a writing or math placement test should email testing@dos5.net with first and last name, 博天堂官方 student ID number and what test(s) they need to take. Instructions will be emailed to the student to complete the tests at home.
