 What is a CLEP exam like?
Note, all CLEP exams are administered by computer. A College-Level Examination Program exam is an hour and a half long and consists mostly of multiple-choice questions (some exams have fill-in-the-blank questions), except for English Composition with Essay.
The English Composition with Essay exam is an essay question that must be completed in 45-minutes, in addition to a 45-minute multiple-choice section that is composed of 50 questions.
Make sure to have at least two hours to complete testing. It is also advised that you take no more than two different subject CLEP exams in one day.
When do I get my scores?
You will receive your score immediately after completing the test (except for English Composition with Essay, in which case you will receive your score in about four weeks), since CLEP exams are entirely computer-based. In about a month, any score recipient, if you designate one at the start of the exam, will receive your official score report.
The cost of a CLEP exam
The fee for each CLEP exam is $65.00, plus any service fees payable to the testing center. Nevertheless, for eligible military service members and eligible civilian employees, CLEP exams are free of charge.
In what subjects are there CLEP exams?
You may take an exam for credit in 34 college courses. CLEP exams cover material equivalent to what is taught in courses that students take as requirements in the first two years of college. The CLEP exam helps student test out of many prerequisite and beginner-level courses, if you are earning an accelerated degree.
