Academic Information Academic Information on file in the Admission Office before a students' application for admission will be processed. Testing centers are located in all the states and many foreign countries. It is recommended that students take the ACT as early as possible during their senior year of high school. Additional information may be obtained from high school principals or counselors, or by writing ACT Registration Unit, P.O. Box 414, Iowa City, Iowa 52240, or from the Weber State College Counseling and Testing Center, Ogden, Utah 84403. Because the results of the ACT assist advisers in placing students in appropriate courses, a student may be restricted from registration in a particular course until the results of his ACT are available. 2. Advanced Placement Program—Weber State College has adopted the following policy for those students who have completed the Advanced Placement Program and have passed the Educational Testing Service examinations with acceptable scores: Twelve quarter hours will be granted to a student completing any standard Advanced Placement Examination with a composite grade of 5, 4, or 3 at the completion of a daily, full-year, high school course as recommended by the committee on advanced placement of the College Entrance Examination Board. Students interested in receiving credit under this policy should have results of the examination forwarded to the Records Office. 3. CLEP—(College Level Examination Program) is based on the assumption that students have gained the equivalent of formal classroom instruction in the liberal arts through non-traditional ways; such as on-the-job training, residence in a foreign country, military experience, correspondence courses, etc. The CLEP consists of two different types of examinations: a. General Examinations are designed to measure a broad area of general knowledge ordinarily required of students during their first and second year in college. The areas include English composition, Natural Sciences, Mathematics, Humanities, and Social Science-History. A student who has been officially accepted and is presently enrolled at Weber State College may earn a maximum of 48 credit hours toward a degree on the basis of the CLEP General Examination with the exception of the Mathematics test. b. Subject Examinations are available in 32 different subjects for credit in equivalent courses taught at Weber State College. The fee for the general examinations is $15 for one test or $25 for two or more. The fee for each subject examination is $15. If a student takes from two to five general examinations and one subject examination, his total fee would be $40. The fee may be paid at the Cashier's Office. Students who are interested in taking the tests should register at the Counseling and Testing Center (Student Personnel Building, Room 206). The subject examinations will be given on Thursday of the third week of each month and the general examinations, on Saturday of the third week of each month. Students need to register two weeks prior to taking the examinations. 4. Special Examination—A student may take special examinations in courses not covered by the College Level Examination Program (CLEP), or the Advanced Placement Program. A student must be officially regularly registered at the time the request for examination is made. A special examination cannot be given in any course the student has taken as a no-credit or audit course. Credits earned by special examination are not considered part of the resident requirement. A maximum of 25 quarter hours of credit can be acquired by special examination. Credit will be given only with approval of the head of the department concerned. A student may earn a maximum of fifteen hours of credit in one subect area at a single sitting. The examination sitting may not be for more than three courses in that subject. The fee for a single sitting is $15.00 GRADUATION Weber State College grants the degrees of Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Science; titles of Associate of Arts, Associate of Science, and Associate of Applied Science; a Certificate of Completion, and a Certificate of Proficiency.
