They may earn a maximum of six credit hours through prior learning assessment credit to apply to a certificate, endorsement or teacher licensure program. Prior learning assessment hours gained in these programs would be applicable to approved degree programs at 香港六合彩资料.
You can earn a maximum of 60 Prior Learning credits as an undergraduate and six as a graduate student. You will still be expected to meet residency requirements as listed in the Old Dominion catalog.
Credit earned through Prior Learning Assessment options does not count as resident credit at 香港六合彩资料. Thus, these credits do not apply to the minimum residency requirement of 25 percent of the total number of credits required for the degree or the credit hours required for graduation with honors or distinction.
