• the number of (quarter equivalent ) credit hours must equal or exceed those of the corresponding Rose-Hulman course.
• Verification that the course was taught on a college campus or equivalent environment and the audience was primarily post-secondary students.

Rose-Hulman credit by exam 

As arranged and approved by the Mathematics department. Please read the appointment restrictions below.

Notes: 

• Credit through the standard AP tests and the International Baccalaureate exams is automatic, once the appropriate scores have been confirmed.
• If you write AP exams in your junior year of high school but no AP exams during your senior year, you may need to double check that Rose-Hulman has received those scores.
• AP Credit and Transfer Credit do not carry a grade and are not averaged into the GPA.
• Any special circumstances or questions should be brought to the Mathematics Department for recommendation or approval. 
• Students are not required to take the Advanced Placement credit and may enroll in the equivalent Rose-Hulman course if they wish. The Mathematics Department should be consulted for advice. In these circumstances the AP credit or transfer credit will not be given.
