what is considered "upper division college units?"?

they are usually specific to a major (vs GE). the numbering of these courses varies from school to school.

A lot of colleges are recognized. I think it depends on what college you study from.  Good luck.

I agree with the previous answer, all the graduate schools I've applied to (and there were a lot) requested a separate GPA calculation for the last 60 units (semester system, 90 units for quarter system)completed for undergraduate degree.

A unit means one hour of class per week.  A typical college and university class is three units, which means that yous spend in the classroom about three hours a week.\n\nFor example, college scheduling would say that a three unit course could be a one day a week 3 hour class, a 1 hour class three days a week (usually Monday, Wednesday and Friday), or 1.5 hours twice a week (usually Tuesday and Thursday).\n\nThere is also the term "lab unit" which is used for some of the science courses.  That is typically one hour a week of a science lab, in addition to a three unit science course.

This is not a "special education" question. It belongs in the "higher education" category.

I'm not sure since I've never seem a grade scale other than A=4.0 scale.... maybe the university has an answer on their website on how to answer this.... try looking at other colleges-- there has to be at least one that shows you what to do!\n\nGood luck!

I second the two-at-most answer as a rule of thumb - and one that's true at most colleges of any sort. That said, do check with Your Particular Community College: some schools have their own way of going about things.

Universities are made up of more than one "college" or school. For example, a university may have a college of arts & sciences, a school of education, a school of business and a schoool of law, etc. Oddly enough my alma mater, The College of William & Mary in Virginia, is America's oldest university. Tradition. Go figure.

I took the test last year.  One note. The first test is a general test applying to all engineering fields. On the second portion, you may select any field you choose.  I know a lot of people who thought they might continue with the general portion thinking it would be easier.  Unless you know information about upper division classes in all fields, you should probably stick to taking the second test in the field of which you are studying.  Good luck

Most lower-division college courses (like what you can get credit for with a CLEP test) are giant lecture classes that are non-interactive and teach directly from the book.  You will get more out of taking your upper-division and core/major classes, so feel free to CLEP!

This question is much easier if you consider the top schools in a certain category or in a certain field. There is a semi-defined grouping of first-, second- and third-tier schools that is generally agreed upon, but even US News & World Report has a different top school every year.

Here are some major divisions, although new one come up almost everyday and it is not very strict :)\n\n1. Applied software (applications) - software dedicated for the end user. This is your browser, a text editor etc.\n2. Power user software - software dedicated for developers (programmers). This is like the operating system, programing languages compilers etc.\n3. System software - software for building/extending operating systems like drivers (another harware etc.)\n\nThere could be also platform divisions like mobile software, PC software etc. Also some major branches could be treated as a division itslef like game development etc. :)

A university is much bigger with more students and it's usually divided into separate colleges within; while a college is much smaller with fewer students and there are no more divisions within. Hope it helps!

First, I am not sure I understand your question.\n\nNext, from what I think you are trying to say, I think it is a barrier. \nWell, first off, they're just too darn expensive. In terms of recognition, most prestigious universities do not count the all of the units that you took. \n\nThere are a few universities that count the units that you've taken but these are few.

well,the standard grades level that i am aware of  are A, B, C ,D,F\nand i am sure that it is being regulated by the department of education.\nIf there are no D's in your school it might probably be your school internal  rules.\nYou can actually  call the department of education and you will get an answer.\nYou can also go to your school catalog under grading policy.\nHope this helps

It looks like a lot of this information is on their website, listed below.  They have several colleges such as Arts and Sciences, Engineering, etc.  Within each of those there are many departments in which you can major.  For example, in Arts & Sciences there are 24 departments from Aerospace Studies to Zoology -- just click on the pulldown menu from the second page listed below.
