EXAMINATIONS 30. Proficiency Examinations Proficiency examinations for advanced standing are offered in all courses normally open to freshmen and sophomores. Except in Rhetoric 1 and 2 and Hygiene 2 and 5, the student must secure the consent of the Head of the Department concerned. A student may obtain the privilege of taking proficiency examinations in more advanced undergraduate courses on recommendation of the Head of the Department, and approval of the Dean of the College. A student who passes a proficiency examination is given credit toward graduation for tne amount regularly allowed in the course, provided such credit does not duplicate credit counted for admission to the University. An examination for credit in a college subject of elementary character will not be granted to a student who has received credit for more than one semester-course in the subject in advance of the course in which the examination is requested. The grade in proficiency e x a m i n a t i o n s is "pass" or "not pass/* hut no student is given a grade of "pass" unless he has made at least "C" in the examination. No official record is made of failures in these examinations. . Proficiency examinations are provided without fee. The examinations in Rhetoric and Hygiene ordinarily are given each semester in the week preceding the registration of upperclassmen. Examinations in other subjects ordinarily are given early in each semester. Information concerning these examinations may be obtained from the Registrar or from the department concerned. Proficiency examinations may be taken only by persons who are in residence; except that they may be taken by persons who are not registered in the University at the time but who are candidates for degrees at the close of the college year in which the examination is to be given and who need no more than ten semester hours to complete the requirements for their degrees.
