Institutional Challenge

If there is not a CLEP exam for a specific class, the college has a policy that potentially allows a student to challenge any class at NMJC except physical education activity courses. These institutional challenge exams have a written and/or performance component. The grade on this exam is the grade that will appear on the student's NMJC transcript.

In order to attempt credit by institutional challenge, the following provisions must be met:

• The student must contact the appropriate academic dean and instructor for permission and to make arrangements to take the institutional exam for credit.
• The student must not have previously audited, enrolled in or attempted credit by examination in the course.
• The student will need to enroll in the course before the institutional challenge exam can be taken.
