Non-Traditional Graduate Level Credit
#1
What are all the options for nontraditional graduate level credit.

Here's what I do know about:

Harvard University Extension courses (open enrollment)

and the Prior Learning Experience Portfolio Evaluation


Am I missing any other avenues or possibilities?

That is very interesting! Which schools offer this?

Thank you for asking IC for GRE study materials. That would be great!

Don't flame me! ;-) BUT I think I was confused between schools giving b.s. credit for it, not grad credit. My post is wrong because I have since tried to find some and have come up empty. I wasn't trying to intentionally mislead anyone. Sorry about that.

LOL No problem!! Many grad schools do require you take the GRE as part of an entrance requirement, however, it's just an assessment tool. As far as I know, there are only 2 colleges in the country that award credit for the GRE exam: Excelsior and Charter Oak.
