Why is PLA
Important?
Accelerate your Education at OSUIT through
Prior Learning Assessment (PLA)
What Do I Need to Know?
Prior learning credit is based upon demonstration of your knowledge and skills gained through training and experience. You can gain these skills in many ways, such as technical and on-the-job training, workshops, military training, community service, volunteer work, seminars, travel, and independent study.
OSUIT offers many options through which you may earn prior learning credit, including national tests and certifications, institutional challenge exams, and portfolio reviews. You must apply to be a degree-seeking student at OSUIT before you ask for a prior learning assessment.
You will only receive prior learning credit for coursework that is applicable to your declared major at OSUIT. You must successfully complete 12 or more semester hours of college credit-bearing course work through OSUIT before any prior learning credit that you earn
will be placed on your OSUIT transcript.
