The Korean academic credit bank

17 Aug 2014

South Korea's Academic Credit Bank System (ACBS) is that genuinely rare thing in higher education: something new. Essentially a degree-granting institution of last resort, the ACBS allows students to earn a degree by combining credits from different sources. The purpose of this brief paper is to describe the Credit Bank's operations, its record of success, and to suggest ways in which the concept of a credit bank could be applied in North America.
