Why take these exams?
By taking one or more College Level Examination Program 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 College Level Exam Program, just $55 ($60, effective July 1, 2006), 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.
This exam can help you to the finish line if you're a few credits shy of graduating. - Satisfy a proficiency requirement.
