Students Can Receive College Credit Even if They Have Dropped Courses

The time and money commitment required by a typical college course can sometimes lead to students dropping their classes instead of completing them. CLEP is a way for students to earn the credits they lost through dropping classes by simply taking a CLEP exam. The exams are accepted by colleges and universities across the country as qualified course credits that fulfill requirements toward graduation.

CLEP Exams Replace College Courses

Through the CLEP program a student can choose to replace the long drawn out process of attending class by taking a single exam. CLEP offers several tests that fulfill core curriculum requirements. Students can use a CLEP test to replace courses in English, History, Language, and several other areas. You don't have to purchase specific textbooks to qualify for CLEP. You are free to choose whatever study aids and styles you believe will work best for you. A CLEP test costs almost half as much as a normal 3 unit college course, which means that you can save money as you accelerate through your college courses.

How CLEP Can Keep Your College Career on Track

If you have dropped several courses during your college career you may be worried about graduating on time. The CLEP program offers tests that can help you get caught up on your course credits quickly. You could take as many test as you need to make up for the credit you've lost. There is no limit on the number of tests you are allowed to take at once. If you spend some time studying the subject on your own after you attended a few classes you should have no trouble passing a CLEP exam and earning those credits you missed out on before.

Study for CLEP Exams at Your Own Pace

Since CLEP exams don't require any formal classwork, you are free to study at your own pace and in the style that works best for you. As long as you understand the material when it is time to take the test you will have no problem passing the exam. CLEP helps you save money by avoiding the high price of textbooks and class materials as well as saving you time. Some students find that they only need a few weeks to prepare for a CLEP test, which takes far less time than a typical 16-week college course.

CLEP is Less Expensive Than Traditional Courses

There are many ways a student can save money through the CLEP program. The initial savings is in the cost of the test compared to the cost of a college course. A CLEP test costs less than a single 3 unit course. Some of the CLEP exams provide credits that cover more than one course, which means that the results end up costing almost half as much as the original courses would cost. Textbook costs are completely eradicated when you take CLEP tests, as well. The incidental costs of attending class are also reduced, such as gasoline to drive to campus or eating out because you are away from home.
