DEPARTMENTAL EXAMS
TU offers departmental "challenge" exams in Biology, Chemistry,
Economics, Health Science, Mathematics, Foreign Languages and Psychology.
Students' achievement in a particular test must be equal or superior to that of
students having earned a grade equivalent of 2.00. Although departmental
standards for granting credit may exceed this minimum, credit may not be granted
when achievement is below 2.00 level work. Departments may also offer
advanced placement with no credit given based on an individualized assessment.
