College Level Examination Program (CLEP)

CLEP is the most widely accepted credit-by-examination program in the United States today, helping students of all ages earn college degrees faster by getting credit for what they already know. By receiving a satisfactory score, you can earn from 3 to 8 college credits toward your college degree for each CLEP you take, depending on the exam subject. Since the exams are administered on a computer, results are available to you immediately.

Shorten your path to a college degree -- with CLEP!
  • Save time. Get college credit for what you already know. Be rewarded for what you've learned through independent study, advanced high school courses, noncredit adult courses, or professional development.
  • Save money. Compare the cost of a CLEP exam, just $65-75, to hundreds -- even thousands -- of dollars in tuition.
  • Make college more interesting. Move right into advanced courses.
  • Graduate on time. CLEP can help you to the finish line if you're a few credits shy of graduating.
  • Satisfy a proficiency requirement. Demonstrate you've already mastered the content of, for example, a basic math or language course. Great for dual-degree candidates or students just a few credits shy of graduation.
