Students who feel they have already obtained knowledge and skills equivalent to courses offered by Kishwaukee College may choose to take a proficiency exam.
Students who are successful in passing a proficiency evaluation receive credit for the course, and the credit hours earned count toward graduation requirements on the same basis as if the credit had been earned through traditional classroom learning.
