Testing and Tutoring

Marion Technical College (MTC) recognizes and offers two types of credit by proficiency examinations: a college-administered Proficiency-for-Credit Exam (credit-by-exam) and the College Level Examination Program (CLEP). 

Credit by Exam

If you have qualifications from previous education or job training, you may be able to earn credit in certain courses by successfully passing an exam that will test your knowledge related to the learning outcomes of that course.

The following is a list of courses that offer a credit-by-exam option.  These exams are developed and scored by MTC faculty. Students should consult their advisor prior to taking a credit-by-exam to determine what courses are eligible in their major.
