Ohio University will award credit for nursing-based Excelsior College Examinations (ECE) where a grade of A, B or C is earned. In order to receive credit, the student must be enrolled in one of OHIO’s nursing programs. The credit awarded is based on recommendations made by the American Council on Education (ACE). Only ECE exams that are backed by ACE recommendations will carry transferable credit. In most cases, the equivalent coursework will be general in nature and will not satisfy specific course requirements. Credit is not awarded for Non-nursing ECE and Excelsior College Performance Examinations.
