Credit By Examination
CSU Channel Islands may grant unit credit to those students who pass examinations
that have been approved for credit system-wide. These are: the CSU English Equivalence
Examination (EEE) and the College Level Entrance Program (CLEP) Examinations. Specific
information on credit earned may be found by visiting the Academic Advising website
located at www.csuci.edu/academics/advising.
Students may challenge courses by taking examinations developed at Cal State Channel
Islands. Credit shall be awarded to those who pass them successfully. Credits earned
in this manner will be recorded as CR (credit) on the student s transcript and will
be counted toward the total number of units required for the degree although they
will not be included in calculation of the grade-point average. Credit by examination
may not be used to fulfill the minimum residence requirement.
