In the College of General Studies, you may earn up to half the credits you need to graduate—60 credits of the required 120—by earning a combination of six credits on each of the five general examinations and three to six credits on certain subject examinations. You are required to score at least 50 points or more on each exam you take in order to receive credit from us. Our CLEP information page has more information.

CLEP Study Materials: A Word of Warning
Many private companies offer preparation service for CLEP exams. Some are legitimate, but others make promises they cannot keep and sell services and products that you don't need. You should investigate test preparation companies thoroughly before making a purchase.We have received complaints from students regarding the following practices, which we consider to be unfair or inappropriate:
- Attempts to sell preparation services for many CLEP exams at once, with sizable payment up front or on credit
- Credit agreements with a company other than the one selling the preparation materials
- Contacts from salespeople to you or your families at home
- Promises that you can receive college credit without enrolling in college
- Efforts to sell you dictionaries or encyclopedias as part of the test preparation package
