Request for Evaluation of Prior Learning
Created: CPL 2/26/20
Students may be allowed to establish credit for courses within their program of study based on an evaluation of learning
gained through life and work experience, prior training, industry credential, and/or specialized testing. This form is only for
requesting an evaluation of prior learning that has not already been listed on the CNM Credit for Prior Learning (CPL)
website.
Complete the below form and submit the request with documentation to Enrollment Services, Grad & Eval Office, or email
all documentation to gradeval@cnm.edu. Upon receipt of the request Enrollment Services will forward the information to
the relevant academic school(s) for evaluation. If credit is granted, the student will receive notification of the award through
their CNM email account. Awarded credit will appear on the student’s official record as transfer credit (TR).
