Course Challenge
Procedure
A student may challenge a course for which the student believes
his or her prior training and/or study are adequate to meet the instructor’s
course requirements. Only certain courses, as identified by individual
divisions, are available for this option.
This credit will be allowed based on the following conditions and
procedures:
- The student must be currently enrolled at Aims Community College.
- A course challenge may not be made for a course in which the
student is currently enrolled, nor for one in which the student
had been previously enrolled.
- The student must obtain this Course Challenge Application Form
from the Admissions and Records Office, and then submit the application
to the division offering the course. The division will inform the
student of divisional procedures.
- Upon approval by the course instructor and the division authority,
the student will be offered the opportunity to complete the requirements
for the course challenge.
- A fee of $40 per credit will be charged to the student, and is
payable upon division approval. Final arrangements for the course
challenge will be made when the student presents the instructor
with a receipt from the Financial Services Office (Cashier).
- Upon successful completion of the requirements for course challenge,
the student will be awarded full credit for the course. A grade
of “S” (Satisfactory) or “U” (Unsatisfactory)
will be recorded when it is submitted to the Admissions and
Records Office by the division authorities.
- The credit will not affect the student’s grade point average,
will not meet residency requirements, and will not contribute
to eligibility requirements for Financial Aid or Veteran’s
benefits.
