What are the proctor and testing policies for ECE's online courses?
Students should consult the official syllabus for each course and ensure they are prepared to meet the instructor's testing and proctor policies. In some cases, using a certified academic testing center will be required. Some instructors will be using video proctoring through Respondus. In such cases, a Respondus-compatible webcam and microphone are required. Due to testing requirements, for the duration of the course, students must reside within 3 time zones of the Eastern US time zone.

How do I transfer the Clemson course credits to my home institution?
Please contact your home institution for instructions on how to transfer credits. Ideally, this should be done before the course begins, as it is possible that a particular home institution may not give a course the kind of credit that a student expects. Typically the home institution wants to see a sample syllabus. Upon completion of the course, the home institution will then want an official transcript. Information on ordering an official Clemson transcript can be found on this page: https://www.clemson.edu/registrar/student-menu/student-records/transcripts.html

What are the dates of the summer sessions for 2024?
