College-Level Examination Program (CLEP)
Credit may be granted and a grade of “TST” assigned upon receipt in the Office of Admissions and Records of an official score report, showing completion of at least one general examination with a score of 50 or above, or subject examinations with a score of 50 or above.
The general examination(s) must be completed before the student achieves sophomore classification at the university. Subject examinations may be taken at any time.
An “e” notation in the chart below means an essay is required in addition to the objective test. This essay must be arranged with the appropriate academic department.
