How Many Credits Can Students Warn on the STAMP Assessment?

High School students can earn up to 4 high school elective credits.

If a student has previously earned elective credit for high school world language courses taken in the same language, then STAMP credit will only be granted for proficiency beyond what the student has already demonstrated.
