The university I went to allowed students to test out of the first three semesters of intro to programming classes (IE here's the compiler, this is what OOP is etc.) but you had to have an interview like this first.

I felt extra qualified when I did it after having read through the SICP, it was kind of cool. I wish I had talked to my professors more but I felt like everything was so expensive I shouldn't mess with it.
