- Enhance your degree
- Allow you to skip beginner courses
- Able you to take higher level courses faster
- Help determine your readiness for classes
- Apply knowledge you already have
- Save money on books and tuition
Evaluation and Credits
You may earn credit from CLEP tests on the list below. To receive credit, you must provide an official score report to the Office of the Registrar. If you are a transfer student, we accept the credits reported on your official transcripts from accredited colleges or universities.
