CREDIT FOR LIFE EXPERIENCE (CLE)

The “Credit for Life Experience” program is a Kentucky State University option which affords an adult student, who has significant learning generated by life experiences, the opportunity to document this learning for possible academic credit. To be eligible for the program, a student must:

1. Enroll in CLE 299 (Portfolio Development) for 3 credits with the written approval of the CLE instructor in the Office of Continuing and Distance Education;
2. Be an associate or baccalaureate degree-seeking student and have completed
3. Composition I), or its equivalent at another institution; and
3. Have significant life experience that is equivalent to selected and approved coursework offered by the University. A student is eligible to take CLE 299 and complete the assessment process only once in each five-year period.

The successful completion of CLE 299 results in the development of a portfolio that documents the student’s learning through life experience and becomes the basis for the formal request for academic credit. Academic credit through assessment is granted only for related courses taught by the University’s faculty as part of the degree programs of Kentucky State University. Academic credit is not available for any course that state or accrediting agency policy does not allow to be granted by assessment. The portfolio can be assessed only after the student has been billed for and has paid a non-refundable fee equal to one-third the prevailing tuition rate per semester credit hour for the sum of all credits requested through the portfolio. This fee is applied in addition to the tuition cost for enrolling in the CLE 299 Portfolio Development course.

A student may earn up to one-fourth the minimum number of semester credit hours required for completion of an associate or a baccalaureate degree under the Credit for Life Experience option provided that no other credit by examination/certification has been earned (including CLEP and Challenge Examinations). A student who intends first to complete an associate degree program and then work toward a baccalaureate degree may “bank” credits above one-fourth the minimum number of semester credit hours, which would then become applicable toward a baccalaureate degree. The payment will amount to one-third of the appropriate prevailing tuition rate.

The Credit for Life Experience program is administered by the Office of Educational Support.
