Okla. Stat. tit. 70, § 70-3207.1

intent.

A. It is the intent of the Legislature that credits earned by

students in any institution of higher education within The Oklahoma

State System of Higher Education be fully accepted at any other

institution of higher education within The Oklahoma State System of

Higher Education and that the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher

Education assume leadership in working with institutional faculty

and administrators to ensure that students move smoothly from one

level of education to another. Objectives should include

development of transfer policies and guides, degree sheets, course

equivalencies, and common course numbering.

B. It is the intent of the Legislature that institutions of

higher education within The Oklahoma State System of Higher

Education, private institutions accredited by the Oklahoma State

Regents for Higher Education, technology center school districts,

schools or training programs licensed, accredited, approved, or

regulated by any state agency, and private schools licensed by the

Oklahoma Board of Private Vocational Schools be prohibited from

placing statements in documents or brochures given to students or

advertising in publications that credits earned at the institution,

training program, or school are fully accepted at another

institution or school without having a written agreement with the

other institution or school stating that the credits will be fully

accepted.

C. It is the intent of the Legislature that in establishing the

minimum required score on an Advanced Placement Examination for

granting course credit for a particular lower division course,

institutions of higher education within The Oklahoma State System of

Higher Education shall not require an Advanced Placement Exam score

of more than three, except the requirement of an Advanced Placement

Exam score of more than three shall be permitted for granting

additional course credit for a lower division course or courses

sequenced with the initial lower division course. Credit policy

regarding all Advanced Placement Exams shall be posted on campus

websites effective for the 2021-22 fall academic term and for each

academic term thereafter. The institutions of higher education

within The Oklahoma State System of Higher Education shall conduct

biennial reviews of their Advanced Placement credit policy. The

Oklahoma State System of Higher Education shall report noncompliance

to the education committees in the Senate and House of

Representatives by December 1 each year beginning December 1, 2021.

D. It is the intent of the Legislature that in establishing the

minimum required score on a College-Level Examination Program (CLEP)

examination for granting course credit for a particular lower

division course, institutions of higher education within The

Oklahoma State System of Higher Education shall not require a score

higher than the minimum score recommended by a nonprofit higher

education association that makes recommendations on college-level

equivalencies. Provided, however, the president of the institution

may determine, based on evidence, that a higher score on the

examination is necessary to indicate that a student is sufficiently

prepared to be successful in a related, more advanced course for

which the lower division course is a prerequisite. Institutions

shall post on campus websites their CLEP examination policy

effective for the 2023-2024 academic year and for each academic year

thereafter.
