EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING CREDIT - PORTFOLIO
The concept that significant, college-level learning can take place outside of the traditional structure of higher education is an important aspect of the philosophy and system of Hampton University's Distance Learning Degree Program. Many adults involved in various aspects of life have already acquired learning of a measurable, college-level dimension. This learning deserves assessment and recognition as part of a degree program.

Hampton University may grant credit for learning that is considered college equivalent learning in academic subjects offered in this program that can be demonstrated/verified in a portfolio.
