Can I get credit for work experience?

Although UNC Charlotte does not offer course credit for work experience directly, a student currently enrolled at UNC Charlotte may pass a specially prepared challenge examination and receive credit for a University course without having to do the normal course work. The student contacts the program in which credit is sought to request administration of an examination. Students may also receive up to 23 semester hours of course credit through the College Level Examination Program (CLEP) developed by the College Board, which helps you receive college credit for what you already know.
