BEFORE YOU REGISTER Get Credit for What You Already Know

Before you meet with a Pathway advisor, think about what previous courses and experiences could earn you college credit . It’s possible you’ve already gained college-level learning on your own . Credit for Prior Learning Experience is a way to earn credit for speci fi c MATC courses based on skills learned as part of courses completed from another college, work experience, professional licenses, certi fi cates, apprenticeships, military training or through training programs . To graduate, all students must complete 25% of their coursework at MATC . Use Credits Previously Earned at MATC MATC has designed many of its programs to offer students a quicker path to completing advanced credentials by applying their credits earned previously in a related MATC certi fi cate or technical diploma . For example, credits earned while pursuing a Business Management technical diploma could count toward earning an associate degree . Talk with a Pathway advisor for details .
