Senior
Institution Hours
|
SIUC requires
at least 60 senior institution (4-year college) credit hours in order to earn
a Bachelor’s degree. Since the Industrial Technology Program offers only
48 hours on-base through the IT courses, some of you will need to get 12 additional
semester hours of senior institution credit to transfer to SIUC. The following suggestions are ways to do
that: 1. Work Experience credit. This option is for civilian students only
(because military students get credit for military work and training). Obtain work experience guidelines from coordinator
in IT office, after you have completed at least one semester in the IT
program. 2. Take courses you need, according to your evaluation,
from a Senior Institution. 3. Take ILP courses from SIU Carbondale - see http://www.dce.siu.edu/siuconnected/
for information. 4. Take Dantes
and General Clep exams
through the military base for an appointment please call base coordinator.
SIUC will not accept credit for Subject Clep
exams. SIUC will accept credit
for General Clep exams (only if the student
has never had any college classes in the subject and obtains the score
accepted by SIUC so check with coordinator in IT office before taking exams).
Also check with Base Coordinator or IT
office to find out which Dantes exams will transfer to SIUC. Don’t
ignore this Senior Institution requirement.
You can have all course requirements complete and still not graduate
because of this rule. |
