CLEP Testing
What is CLEP? The College-Level Examination Program (CLEP) is a rigorous program for students who feel confident that they can successfully take a comprehensive exam instead of a course, due to proficiency in that area.
A maximum of 30 credit hours can be arranged through CLEP by means of exams. Test credit will not be allowed when students have previously received credit in comparable courses. In addition, test credit will not be granted when students are currently enrolled in a comparable course.
You must register and purchase your test through the CLEP website prior to scheduling an appointment through the Assessment and Testing Center.
