Computer Literacy Exam (CLE)

The University believes that all students must be familiar with computer concepts and the use of computers to work effectively in today’s high-technology world. Therefore, all matriculating students must fulfill the Computer Literacy Requirement before graduation.  Students with a Bachelor's degree or higher are exempt from the Computer Literacy Requirement.

To fulfill the Computer Literacy Requirement, students must pass the Computer Literacy Examination, which is administered on the Albert A. Sheen campus (St. Croix) and the Orville E. Kean campus (St. Thomas). Students may enroll in CIS 051  to prepare for the examination; however, enrollment in these courses is not required to take the examination, and completion of these courses does not fulfill the Computer Literacy Requirement.

Students to whom this requirement applies and failing to meet it must register in CIS 051 concurrently with their required courses. CIS 051 includes preparation for and the administration of the Computer Literacy Examination. Students who fail to pass CIS 051 must continue registering for the course every semester until they successfully pass the Computer Literacy Examination. Completing CSC 111 and CIS 051 does not fulfill the Computer Literacy Requirement. Only successfully passing the Computer Literacy Examination will fulfill the Computer Literacy requirement.Back to top
