Select a course in the CCV catalog, and with advisor permission, you pay a one-time fee and a faculty member who teaches the course is hired to evaluate your learning in 60 days or less. Awarded credits are ungraded credits on the CCV transcript. Students may request a grade as part of the process, to ease with future transfer – although a grade will not be reflected on the transcript.
