For CLEP and transfer-credit purposes, Dakota Wesleyan University is a private institution that evaluates prior learning through its own academic policies. Students seeking credit by exam or transfer credit should expect the university to review scores, course equivalencies, and degree applicability before credit is posted. Because policies can change, the most reliable source is the university’s current registrar or academic catalog.

Students may also have options involving CLEP®, DSST, AP, ACE, or NCCRS credits, depending on DWU's current policies. Not every alternative credit source is automatically accepted, so verify eligibility before completing a course or exam.

Approved credits may count toward general education, major requirements, electives, or other degree requirements depending on the evaluation. Dakota Wesleyan University transfer credits should therefore be reviewed against the specific degree program.
