Will CLEP credits get one into college?

CLEP credits alone will not get someone into college. They can, however, be used to earn college credit and place out of introductory-level courses. This can save time and money, and allow students to focus on more advanced coursework.

Most colleges and universities accept CLEP credits, but the number of credits that can be applied toward a degree varies. Some schools may also have specific requirements for which CLEP exams can be used. It is important to research the policies of the schools you are interested in attending before taking any CLEP exams.

In addition to CLEP credits, students can also earn college credit through other means, such as Advanced Placement (AP) exams, International Baccalaureate (IB) exams, or through dual enrollment programs.
