JCU Undergraduate Bulletin 2005-2007: Admission -- CLEP

College Level Examination Program (CLEP)

Adults, 21 or older, who through personal study and effort may have developed the knowledge, understanding, and skills normally associated with certain college level courses, may be permitted to earn up to 30 semester hours of credit on the basis of high achievement on the General and/or Subject tests administered by the College Entrance Examination Board in its College Level Examination Program (CLEP). The amount of credit granted will depend on the tests taken, the scores achieved, the degree program to be pursued, and the major field. Earned CLEP credit does not convert to letter grades and does not apply toward graduation honors. Students planning to take CLEP tests should consult the Office of Transfer and Part Time Student Admission or their academic advisor.
