Advanced Placement Standing Test for CSIS 2300

The Advanced Placement Standing (APS) Test for CSIS 2300 is given in the Department of Computer Science and Information Systems.  If you are considering taking the APS test for CSIS 2300, do the following:

• Know the rules that apply to APS tests and the credit they earn for a class.  Consult the KSU Undergraduate Catalog.   An APS test must be passed with a grade of 80% or higher.  No letter grade is earned - only the credit for the class.  Your GPA will not be affected

• Review the learning objectives for the course.  CSIS 2300 is a complicated course and contains conceptual and well as skill-based material

• Look at the textbook for the course.  If you are not well-versed in the material covered in the text, you probably will not do well on the APS test

• Once you have assessed your candidacy for the test and wish to proceed, go to the KSU Registrar's Office, register for the test, and pay the fee (currently $25.00, but subject to change).  Keep your receipt

• Call the CSIS Department at 423-6005 and speak with the CSIS 2300 Coordinator (currently Dr. Jorge Perez).  Arrange a testing date with the coordinator.  You must show the coordinator your receipt before you will be allowed to take the APS test

• The CSIS 2300 Coordinator will score your exam and report the outcome  to you and the Registrar's Office.  If you passed with a score of 80% or higher, credit for CSIS 2300 will appear on your transcript
