How credit is awarded
Qualifying AP, IB Higher Level and CLEP scores convert automatically to specific Porter course credit once an official score report reaches the Registrar — no separate application or committee review needed.
What to do before enrolling
Send official score reports as early as possible; a student registering before scores arrive can still enroll in the next course in a sequence with an advisor's override, adjusted once credit posts.
The practical details
Accepted exams: AP, IB Higher Level, CLEP. Where scores go: Sent directly from the testing agency to the Registrar. Posting: Credit posts automatically once an official score report arrives. Anything time-sensitive — an accommodation, a booking, a deadline — is worth confirming directly before you rely on it, because the specifics here can change from term to term.
If you have a question
Start at the contact directory or the Porter Student Help Desk in Founders Union 118, which is the single place to go when it is not obvious which office owns a question. You can also sign in to MyPorter to message an office or book a time.
Fictional information
UW–Porter Falls is a work of parody. Every office, person, building, phone number and statistic on this page is invented; nothing here describes a real institution or a service you can actually contact.
