College Level Examination Program (CLEP)
Students may be able to receive credit in required courses for proficiencies gained outside the college classroom. The amount of credit received and the level of placement in future courses will be determined by the Registrar and the chair of the department in which the course is taught.
Credit may not be obtained in this manner for any course in which the student was previously enrolled for either college credit or audit. Credit by examination will be treated as transfer credit. Credit may not be obtained in this manner for any course in a subject area in which the student has already received credit for a course more advanced than the one covered by the examination.
Credit will be awarded for the College Level Examination Program (CLEP) subject examinations listed in the following schedule. No credit is awarded for CLEP General Exams. Credit should be established prior to enrollment and must be established by the end of the student's first year at LeTourneau University.
