College Credit Recommendation Service ACE evaluates training programs offered by business, industry, and government and publishes its credit recommendations in The National Guide to College Credit for Workforce Training. If a student has received training that appears in the guide, he or she may receive college credit if: i. training parallels a discipline area offered through the Maricopa Community Colleges, and ii. credit meets a program requirement or is used as elective credit. C. Departmental Credit by Evaluation Students may apply for Departmental Credit by Evaluation in certain courses by obtaining the appropriate form in the Admissions and Records Office/Office of Student Enrollment Services, and completing applicable paperwork and other requirements of the college, including payment of required fee. See fee schedule for appropriate fee. Fees are not refundable if a student fails to obtain credit. Students may not request: i. The evaluation of a course a second time; ii. The evaluation of a course while currently enrolled in the course; iii. To establish credit in a previously completed course; and iv. To establish credit for a lower level of a course in which credit has been received. Exceptions may be granted at some of the Maricopa Community Colleges for unique programs of study Academic departments may have additional requirements that must be met before credit may be granted through departmental credit by evaluation. When credit is granted as outlined above, a notation of "credit by evaluation," and the number of credits will appear on the student's transcript. These credits are not used in computing the grade point average. Credit by evaluation is transferable within the Maricopa Community Colleges, but is not necessarily transferable to other colleges and universities. 2. Credit by Exam (College-Level Equivalency Examinations) ACE has published credit recommendations for a number of national standardized examinations such as the ones listed below in the Guide to Educational Credit By Examination.

Scores must be sent directly to the Offices of Admissions and Records Student Enrollment Services from the specific testing company(s) before credit is awarded. All equivalency is subject to future review and possible catalog change. A.
