Credit is granted for external exams according to CSU Executive Order 1036. Exams passed with scores noted in the documents below will earn a grade of credit (CR) and will not be calculated into students' grade point averages (GPAs). Credit granted is reviewed annually and occasionally varies from exam year to exam year, as content, exams, and Channel Islands (CI) curricula are subject to change. Thus, CI credit is awarded based on exam completion date.
