Clep Information
About CLEP
Shorten your path to a college degree — with CLEP!
The College-Level Examination Program® or CLEP provides students of any age with the opportunity to demonstrate college-level achievement through a program of exams in undergraduate college courses. There are 2,900 colleges that grant credit and/or advanced standing for CLEP exams.
Why take CLEP exams?
By taking one or more CLEP exams in your strong subjects, you'll...
* 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 $60, to hundreds — even thousands — of dollars in tuition. CLEP exams are free to military service members.
* 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.
