CLEP and Credit By Exam Options
Credit by exam is your path to earning college credit for a fraction of the cost of typical college courses without sacrificing the quality of your education.
The most popular of these exams are the College Level Examination Program, or CLEP for short, which consists of 34 exams covering a variety of college subjects from science and math to literature and English composition.
CLEP and other exams can be applied to over 20 distance learning majors through CollegePlus! and can be transferred to over 2900 colleges and universities across the country.
