Will other colleges/universities accept RIT transcripted credit for IED, DE, POE, CEA and CIM?
Each college establishes its own policies. Depending on program requirements, a college may accept some or all of the RIT transcripted college credit. PLTW encourages the following: (1) consider PLTW National Affiliates or colleges which offer incentives/ scholarships specifically to students in PLTW courses, such as, Clarkson University; (2) ask the admissions department of other colleges/universities if they accept RIT transcripted college credit. The key points to remember are: (1) IED, DE, POE, and CIM parallel the same courses at some institutions; (2) the tests that PLTW students take to earn college credit were designed by college professors and meet quality standards; (3) an increasing number of colleges and universities are becoming National Affiliates of PLTW, which indicates their commitment to the quality standards of our program.
