Testing for credit not popular
despite increasing tuition cost
By Barbara Hicks

Despite having to pay as little
as $25 for 12 credits, students
are not taking advantage of the
University's Credit By Examina
tion program, according to the
Evelyn Rowe, director of test
ing
Only 1 percent of the student
population took advantage of
the program last year, Rowe
says, even though paying tuition
for University courses costs $90
for one credit
The University Testing Ser
vice, located in the Counseling
Center at the 13th Avenue and
Beech Street entrance, allows
students to test their way out of
some "general and language
requirements,” Rowe says.
The testing service, which
administers the nationally
developed College Level Ex
amination Program, gives
students a chance to challenge
courses in the College of Arts
and Sciences Students can
receive up to 12 credits per ex
am on lower division group
requirements such as biology
and economics, Rowe says
Under the Credit By Examin
ation program, developed by
University instructors, students
challenge a single class in Eng
lish, geography, geology and
psychology, Rowe says
Students may also take
waiver exams for their Writing

requirements. Students do not

earn credit by taking the exams,
but passing the test fulfills
graduation requirements.
Scores required to pass the
test vary from exam to exam, but
students need to score “at least
the equivalent of passing in a
regular class,” Rowe says. The
testing service provides de
scriptive handouts for each ex
am to guide students on what to
study, she adds.
Rowe says she hasn't noticed
an increase in use of the ser
vice, despite the rising cost of
tuition and financial aia cuts
Half of the students using the
service are “older-than-average
students who had a specific
academic goal in mind,” she
says
Rowe says she doesn’t un
derstand why more students do
not use the service.
She says the service has “put
up signs all over campus.” The
information appears in the Gen
eral Catalog and in the Faculty
Advising Manual.
“Every faculty adviser could
tell students about it,” she says.
The program “somehow
seems to slip through the cracks
and people just don’t become
aware" of the testing alterna
tive, Rowe says.
“Most people who show up
here come because of word of
mouth," she says. ’'They’ve
heard about it, but it hasn't
caught their attention until they
get into a bind.”
Rowe says the service could
handle a deluge of people
“We might change our
scheduling slightly, but we
could sure accommodate
them."
For additional information,
students may contact Academic
Advising and Student Services
in 164 Oregon Hall, or the Test
ing Service Office on the
second floor of the Health
Center
