The policies listed and described in this section are governed by the Academic Affairs division at the University.
The University allows students to receive credit toward degree requirements from the following programs:
• Advanced Placement
• Cambridge Pre-U
• Caribbean Advanced Proficiency Examination (CAPE) Unit
• College Level Examination Program (CLEP)
• Dual Enrollment
• General Certificate of Education (GCE)
• International Baccalaureate
To have Advanced Placement, International Baccalaureate, or College Level Examination Program credit hours evaluated, the student must submit an official test report to the Office of Undergraduate Admission.
The University of Miami does not grant credit equivalency for CLEP Foreign Language and General Examinations.
Students taking dual enrollment courses (i.e., college courses taken while still in high school) must submit an official college transcript for review to determine which credits may be applied toward degree requirements.
A student must submit official transcripts or test results no later than the end of the first semester of enrollment at the University of Miami for review. Official transcripts or test results submitted after this time period will not be reviewed and credit hours will not be awarded.
The University will accept no more than 60 credit hours from these programs to count toward the 120 credit hours required for graduation.
