2015-2016 Catalog

Policies and Procedures

At least one credit hour must be successfully completed and transcripted on the student's record before any CPL credit is awarded.

For all prior learning methods, the course number, course title, number of semester hours, and grade of "CPL" will be posted on the student transcript.

The maximum CPL credit applicable toward graduation is up to the residency requirement of the college from any combination of all CPL methods.

Awarded credit may be applied to meet Guaranteed Transfer (GT) courses. The use of these credits will result in public four-year institutions' reevaluation of scores received on National Standardized Exams.

If CPL is applied to the AA, AS, or AGS-Articulated degree requirements, transferability and transfer guarantees may be affected. Consult your advisor and the receiving institution for details.

All documentation and files regarding a student's prior learning credit will be maintained by FRCC.

A student wishing to appeal a credit for prior learning decision should follow the transfer credit appeal process outlined in this catalog.

Prior experience shall be evaluated only if requested by the student.
