Signed: Timothy Tilsworth, President, UAF Faculty Senate Date: 9/23/92 ------------------------------------------------------------- The UAF Faculty Senate passed the following at its Meeting #36 on September 21, 1992: MOTION PASSED (unanimous) ============== The UAF Faculty Senate moves to amend the UAF Credit for Prior Learning policy as follows: [[ ]] Deletions CAPS Additions In acknowledging that individuals learn a great deal outside the walls of educational institutions, some UAF departments participate in a program where up to [[45 credits]] 25% OF TOTAL CREDIT REQUIREMENTS for prior learning may be granted to you if you're a[[n undergraduate degree or certificate student]] CERTIFICATE, ASSOCIATE OR BACHELOR'S DEGREE STUDENT. [[For the Associate of Applied Science degree and the Bachelor of Technology degree, up to 60 credits may be awarded based on federal, state or professional certifications or licenses, if applicable to your degree program.]] Credentials are reviewed by faculty from participating departments who make recommendations for awarding prior learning credit for specific courses that will apply toward CERTIFICATE, associate or baccalaureate degree requirements. Credit received for prior learning doesn't impact your GPA and is not considered as residence credit. For further information concerning credit for prior learning, contact the Advising Center at the Fairbanks campus. EFFECTIVE: Spring 1993 Upon Chancellor's approval RATIONALE: A strong recommendation from the Northwest Association of Schools and Colleges made in our last accreditation report of 1990 is to modify our Credit for Prior Learning policy so that no more than 25% of the credit for any academic program can come from such credit. This proposed change implements this recommendation and places us in compliance with Association standards. Signed: Timothy Tilsworth, President, UAF Faculty Senate Date: 9/23/92 Approved: J. Wadlow, Chancellor Date: 9/24/92
