You do not need to be an 博彩网站 student to take a CLEP exam at 博彩网站. Students who take CLEP exams designate, on the answer key, the school where the College Board should send their scores. Students who have their scores reported to 博彩网站 should refer to the list of course equivalents listed below. These are the only CLEP exams accepted for credit by 博彩网站. Only currently enrolled students registered in degree or certificate programs at 博彩网站 can be awarded CLEP credits.
Credits are designated with a "CL" on the transcript and are not reflected in the student's GPA. Refer to the list of 博彩网站 Course Equivalents for CLEP Exams. These are the only CLEP exams accepted for credit by 博彩网站. Only students registered in degree programs at 博彩网站 and currently enrolled can be awarded CLEP credits.
Results of CLEP Exams are placed in our file. Failures, however, are not recorded on your transcript. The College Board maintains a policy requiring a 3-month waiting period for retaking a failed exam.
The candidate leaves the Testing Session with printed results in hand, and then ETS sends the results to those institutions designated by the candidate, approximately 3 weeks after the examination. 博彩网站 receives scores only when the candidate directs ETS to send them here. STUDENTS TAKING THE CLEP EXAMS ARE ADVISED TO CONTACT THE COLLEGE WHERE THEY WANT CREDIT AWARDED TOWARD A DEGREE--TO ENSURE THAT THE EXAM THEY ARE TAKING WILL BE ACCEPTED FOR CREDIT.
There is a CLEP Handbook on reserve at the 博彩网站 Library.
