Advanced Standing Credit
Advanced standing credit may be granted to students who participate in various programs cited below. In addition to these external advanced placement programs, students may achieve advanced standing or advanced placement on the basis of appropriate examinations and other means of evaluation established by a department. Students who are granted such credit will ordinarily be exempted from a corresponding number of credits for graduation.

Candidates undertaking Advanced Placement courses in secondary school are expected to take the appropriate examinations and to request that their scores be forwarded to the college.

College Level or Proficiency Examination
The Maritime College also grants advanced standing credit for satisfactory performance in the College Level Examination Program (CLEP) of the College Entrance Examination Board and the College Proficiency Examination Program of the New York State Education Department, whenever such examinations include material covered in a similar course at the Maritime College. Qualifying performance level and appropriateness of syllabus are determined by the department in which the corresponding Maritime College course is taught.
Service Connected College Level Experience
The College grants credits on selective basis for formal service school courses listed in the Guide to the Evaluation of Educational Experiences in the Armed Services. Credit may also be given for United States Armed Forces Institute (USAFI) and DANTES courses.
