AP, CLEP and IB Credits by Examination

Credit by Examination

ADVANCED PLACEMENT (AP), COLLEGE LEVEL EXAMINATION PROGRAM (CLEP), INTERNATIONAL BACCALAUREATE (IB)

Students may earn college credit for acceptable scores from International Baccalaureate (IB), the College Level Examination Program (CLEP) and the Advanced Placement Examinations (AP) of the College Entrance Examination Board. Credit-by-examination earns credit toward graduation to meet program requirements but carries no grade or quality points and is not used in the factoring the GPA.  Such credit will be granted in an area only if no college work in that area has been taken previously, either attempted or completed, except with special approval of the Vice President for Academic Affairs.

Students seeking to obtain college credit from these examinations must submit official score reports to the Office of the Registrar. Enrolled students are eligible to take CLEP tests but must obtain advance approval from the College. The CLEP Approval form is available from the Office of the Registrar. Test results are evaluated and recorded on a student’s transcript if credit is awarded
