Credit for national standardized test results

Defense Activity for Non-Traditional Education Support (DANTES)

MCC may award specific course credit for subject examinations in fulfillment of current program requirements. For consideration of college credit, students need to have an official national exam score report mailed to:

Metropolitan Community College

Attn: Records

P.O. Box 3777

Omaha, NE 68103-0777

The following limitations exist for credits awarded by testing and experience:

  • Credit granted does not apply toward fulfillment of MCC’s residency requirement for graduation.
  • Credit for documented work experience is only available for classes listed in the current College catalog.
  • Work experience credit is not available for any course for which a proficiency exam exists.
  • Credit earned through documented work experience or course proficiency examinations are generally not transferable to another institution on a course-by-course basis.

Students with questions regarding awarding credit via an alternative to attending classes should contact an advisor at 402-457-2400.
