If you are a brand new student to RACC, complete Steps 1 and 2:

1. Apply to the college and complete necessary placement testing and/or submit college transcripts for evaluation, if you are not a current RACC student.

4. Take the Application for Assessment: Credit by Exam to Cashier's Office to pay for exam (1 credit, no fees). Application for Assessment can be found here.
5. Bring the Application for Assessment: Credit by Exam with the Cashier's stamp and receipt the day of the test and give it to the proctor as proof of payment.
   Note: The faculty evaluator will provide you with instructions for online exams.

7. Allow about ten days for your credit to be credited to your transcript. Review your program evaluation in WebAdvisor to make sure your credits have been articulated and how these credits apply to your program at RACC.
