UoI and CLEP

[Johmford]

Credit by examination may be residence or non-residence credit. If you earn credit by examination while you are enrolled in a college at the University of Iowa, the credit is considered UI residence credit. If, on the other hand, you earn credit by examination while you are enrolled in a college or university other than the University of Iowa and this credit appears on your transfer transcript, the credit is considered non-residence credit.

Very interesting policy for those who may want to explore UoI

[Ideas]

Interesting, but I doubt they take ACE, DSST and most other credit. "The University of Iowa accepts up to 30 hours of credit in some academic areas through the College Level Examination Program (CLEP), the Advanced Placement Program (AP), the International Baccalaureate Program (IB), and the Cambridge International Examinations (CIE)."

Also something like TECEP probably only works as non-residence transfer credit. "The university will validate exam credit from transfer students who bring 12 or more semester hours of regular class credit. In this case, the university will accept CLEP or AP credit and any institutional exams granted by your previous institution."
