Established Mitchell Tech Tests for Credit

Students may be allowed to receive credit by taking an exam (“test out”) for specifically identified courses. Within the first ten days of class, an instructor will notify students if a test out option is available for the course. A Test for Credit Form is available in the Center for Student Success and must be filed in the CSS with a receipt documenting the test out fee paid to the Business Office prior to the student taking the test.

The non-refundable testing fee is $50 for up to three credits, plus $10 for each additional credit.

Students must score 80% or higher on the exam to receive credit for the course. A credit type of EX will be used to transcribe the credit earned from a test out and does not count toward a student’s cumulative GPA. A test out may not be repeated.

Students considering testing out of a class should check with Financial Aid to determine how the test out might affect financial aid or scholarship status.
