CLEP Exam
CLEP is the College Level Examination Program which allows students to
demonstrate knowledge of a particular field. Students may
receive up to 30 hours of college credit (not a letter grade)
for various subject areas. Many colleges throughout the
country accept CLEP credit but you should check with your
particular institution to determine which tests they accept.
CLEP is now a computer-based exam. You receive an instant
score report following the exam.
Availability:
CLEP exams are given on an as needed
basis. It is the student’s responsibility to register with
the Counseling, Testing, & Career Services Office. The
time and date must be scheduled in advance.
Cost: $20.00 is paid to the UAM Cashier’s Office for
administration cost prior to the test date. A check or
money order for $80.00 (beginning July 2012) made payable to
