Can an experienced adult student proficiency out of some of the major courses?
There is a departmental proficiency test available for ACC 153. This is a 100 multiple choice question exam that covers all of the topics in ACC 153. In order to receive credit for this class, students need to score 75% or higher on this exam, receive at least 3 hours of credit by taking any course at Oakton, and then complete the paperwork to receive the proficiency credit. This credit will count toward any degree at Oakton, and many four-year institutions will accept the proficiency credit at their schools. There are some four-year schools who will not accept this type of transfer credit. Students who are planning to transfer should check with their transfer institution about transferring proficiency credit before beginning this process. To begin the process, please contact Jay Cohen, accounting department chair, at jcohen@oakton.edu.
