College Credit Through Advanced Standing

博彩平台网址大全 recognizes that learning takes place in a variety of ways including work experiences, 广泛的阅读, hobbies or vocational endeavors and other similar activities. The basic premise of the advanced standing process is that program-placed students shall be given the opportunity to earn appropriate college credit when their previous studies, training or life and work experiences have already provided the knowledge, competencies or skills associated with a course. The College’s commitment to this philosophy of advanced standing is coupled with its mandate to ensure standards of academic quality comparable to traditional instruction. Procedures to apply for credit through advanced standing can be obtained from the WCC 招生 and Records Office.

The WCC 招生 and Records Office (Room 214 Bland Hall) will provide a student with a copy of the “博彩平台网址大全 Credit Through Advanced Standing” booklet upon request, or you can find the advanced standing information here.

Definition of Advanced Standing

Advanced standing is the award of academic credit for subject matter competency that has been gained by previous academic study or occupational experience. 这可能包括, 但不限于, college credit and advancement based upon individual participation in the Advanced Placement (AP) program of the College Entrance Examination Board; other placement examinations; articulation agreements with other institutions; transfer credit from other accredited institutions of higher learning; training provided by non-collegiate institutions, such as armed forces and service schools; professional certification or experiential learning.

Criteria Governing Advanced Standing

The following criteria apply to all forms of advanced standing:

  • To be eligible for advanced standing, students must be currently enrolled in a program at the College.
  • Advanced standing must be applied toward a specific program at the College. Non-curricular students are 不 eligible for advanced standing.
  • In order to graduate from WCC, a student must complete a minimum of 25% of the total credits required for the degree, 文凭, 或WCC证书.
  • 转移 credit may be awarded for up to 75% of the degree, 文凭, or certificate requirements. Credit-by-portfolio may be awarded for up to 25% of the academic degree requirements. In all cases, at least 25% of the academic degree requirements must be completed at WCC.
  • Award of credit through advanced standing shall be given, 尽可能地, to courses listed in the current “目录. In certain instances, advanced standing credit may be awarded for courses listed in the Virginia Community College System Master Course Guide.
  • No credit shall be awarded that duplicates earned course credit at the College, 在其他机构, or other credit awarded through advanced standing.
  • 学生可能 petition for Credit by Examination for a particular course if they have enrolled (either for credit or audit) in that course, either at WCC or at a不her institution.

The Vice President of Instruction and Student Development, in consultation with the appropriate program faculty, will determine if courses taken more than five years ago can be used in the student’s current program of study.

Students are responsible for providing the College with appropriate official documentation of prior learning. In the case of foreign transcripts, the student must assume the responsibility of having transcripts evaluated by an approved evaluation agency. Students are encouraged to have their foreign transcripts evaluated course-by-course rather than by degree. A listing of agencies that are approved to evaluate foreign transcripts is available in the 博彩平台网址大全 Credit Through Advanced Standing 在线小册子.

The official transcript shall specify the type of advanced standing, 相同的课程, and the number of credits awarded. Advanced standing credit shall be distinct from earned course credit.
