Waiver examinations are available for MIS 100, Econ

experience or previous course work that didn't transfer
for these courses, you may take a free waiver examination
to test out of the course. You can take the waiver examination
for a course only once. You will not receive credits
for passing the exam, but you will have fulfilled the
course requirement and will not have to take the course. |
Prior
Competence Evaluation Proposal
|
If you have prior experience or course work in an
area, and believe it is equivalent to course requirements,
you may apply for a prior competence evaluation. This
may give you the opportunity to fulfill course requirements
without having to take the course. This is the form
you must have approved in order to receive credit for
prior competence. |
| College
of Management Prior Procedures
|
If you apply for a prior competence evaluation, the
College of Management has specific procedures you must
follow to apply for the Prior Competence Evaluation.
This form is the procedural information. |
Major Checklist
|
This is a list of the required courses for the major.
Advisors use this checklist to mark which course you
have completed at previous institutions that fulfill
the BS requirements, and which courses you must complete
through Metropolitan State or a partner institution.
The checklist can also be used to track your progress
by filling in the semester and year you completed the
course and the grade you received. |
Repeated
Course Form
|
If a student receives a failing grade in a course
at Metropolitan State, they can take that course again.
If a passing grade is received when the student repeats
the course, the student or an advisor can fill out the
repeated course form and send it to the records office.
Both grades are recorded on the transcript, however,
only the second passing grade is calculated into the
GPA. |
Outstanding
Student Award
|
The College of Management (COM) selects
one graduating student each semester to be awarded outstanding
student at Commencement. A GPA of 3.5 or higher is one
of the criteria. The form lists the other criteria.
A student can complete this form in their last semester
and submit it to Kate Southwick, advisor for COM. |
