Advanced Standing
Midlands Technical College has established policies and procedures that may allow students to enter certain curriculum programs with advanced standing. In many cases, credit may be awarded through transfer of credit from other post-secondary institutions, challenge examinations, Advanced Placement (AP) exams, the College Level Examination Program (CLEP), military experience or prior experiential learning. Students interested in advanced standing should furnish appropriate documentation to the Admissions Office by the application deadline. After this information has been reviewed by the appropriate college personnel, students will be notified regarding academic credits awarded. Applicability and time limitations on transfer work will be determined by the appropriate program’s department chair or designee. CLEP, AP, and DSST exam information may be obtained by contacting Testing Services at 803.822.3659 (Airport) or 803.738.7897 (Fort Jackson) or by accessing the information on the Testing Center website.
