CLEP Exams now Computer-Based

The College Board recently announced that all College-Level Examination Program (CLEP) tests will be administered via computer and will provide students with instant score results. Since 1967, the College Board has offered paper CLEP exams that enable students to demonstrate proficiency and receive college credit, or exemption from requirements in numerous subject areas. The new technology will allow testing centers to offer the exams more frequently.

“For students who have acquired college-level knowledge through on-the-job experience, independent study, or advanced high school classes, CLEP exams are an ideal way to save time and money,” said Ariel Foster, Associate Director of CLEP at the College Board.#
