College Level Examination
Program (CLEP)
CLEP allows students to earn
credit toward graduation by attaining Tech’s qualifying score on either the
general and/or subject examinations. A student may acquire a maximum of 30 hours
of college credit through CLEP. Credit earned through CLEP may satisfy general
education requirements; however, to be awarded credit students must complete
with passing grades one regular semester of work at Tech. No more than one
subject examination may be taken in a particular departmental area, and students
must have prior approval from the department in which they are majoring to count
the hours toward graduation.
It is recommended that an ACT
sub-score of 24 or above or an SAT sub-score of 500 or above be used as a
guideline for attempting to earn credit through CLEP. Following are the CLEP
examinations that Tech will accept, the corresponding qualifying score required,
and credit awarded.
Cost Per Test:
$60.00 (to CLEP;
Visa, Mastercard, American Express or checks/money orders
payable to CLEP)
$15.00
(to ATU; cash only)
$75.00 TOTAL
