Frequently Asked Questions<\/h3>\n
\n

<\/i><\/i><\/i><\/span> How does CLEP testing benefit me as a high school student?<\/p>

\n

Getting ahead in credits helps to not only graduate earlier at your future college or university but it also can give students access to earlier registration times and earlier housing slots at these institutions. The College Level Examination Program (CLEP) test is available in a variety of subjects and languages including Spanish, History, Psychology, Science, Math, and Business. The CLEP test is a lower cost option for earning college credit and is offered every Wednesday at Ramapo. The CLEP examination fee is only $89 plus a $40 Proctor fee. That’s only $129 for a test that can yield up to 12 credits!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n

<\/i><\/i><\/i><\/span> How many credits will I get for taking the CLEP test?<\/p>

\n

Most colleges publish the required scores for earning CLEP credit on their websites or in a course catalog. The required score for earning CLEP credit may vary from exam to exam. Contact your institution to find out the minimum qualifying score for each exam. Ramapo follows the recommended credit-granting score as set by The American Council on Education.<\/p>\n

Each institution reserves the right to set its own credit-granting policy, which may differ from that of The American Council on Education\u2019s College Credit Recommendation Service (ACE CREDIT)<\/a>\u00a0that Ramapo follows. You can contact your college or university to find out the score it requires to grant credit, the number of credit hours granted, and the course(s) that can be bypassed with a satisfactory score.<\/p>\n

The minimum\u00a0score requirements for obtaining credit at Ramapo can be found here:\u00a0https:\/\/www.ramapo.edu\/testing\/clep-subjects\/<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0The “Credit Granting Score” column on Ramapo’s above website is the score students need to pass and gain credit at Ramapo. The columns after that are the credits received\u00a0at Ramapo and what course it counts for here. This information that will vary depending on what college\/university the student ends up attending. For instance, at Ramapo a score over 50 on the American Literature exam means 8 credits and equates to LITR 220 and LITR 221. However, the credit-granting score and amount of credits may be 6 and the course(s) may be something else at another institution.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n

<\/i><\/i><\/i><\/span> How is this different than AP tests?<\/p>

\n

CLEP and AP are both College Board examinations which test similar content but they function very differently. There are no “CLEP Courses” or College Board\u2013developed curriculum. CLEP is meant to assess learning regardless of where that learning occurred. CLEP testing does not require a course as a pre-requisite to testing.<\/p>\n

Any student can take a CLEP test in any subject that they feel they have proficiency in. More than 2,900 U.S. colleges and universities grant credit for CLEP. Before registering for a CLEP exam, students should search for an institution’s CLEP policy<\/a> to determine if the school they will attend grants credit for CLEP exams.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n

<\/i><\/i><\/i><\/span> How many CLEP tests can I take?<\/p>

\n

You can take as many CLEP tests as you wish. Most colleges and universities cap the amount of transfer credits you can transfer in. At Ramapo this limit is 70 credits.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n

<\/i><\/i><\/i><\/span> I haven't heard of CLEP testing before. Is this as good as it sounds?<\/p>

\n

Yes! CLEP testing has been primarily marketed towards current college students locally but we believe it is an important resource for high school students as well. Financially, the CLEP test is a lower cost option for earning college credit. The CLEP examination fee is only $89 plus a $40 Proctor fee. That’s only $129 for a test that can yield up to 12 credits!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n

<\/i><\/i><\/i><\/span> How do I send my scores and how long are my CLEP scores good for?<\/p>

\n

All CLEP exam registrations come with a free score send, which must be used when you register.\u00a0 However, if you don\u2019t select a score recipient institution during registration or you wish to send your scores to additional institutions, you can request official CLEP transcripts for exams via My Account <\/a>through a secure online checkout process. Additional score reports can be ordered for a fee of $20 per score recipient.\u00a0A cumulative transcript is also available that covers all the CLEP exams you have taken and the scores you earned in the last 20 years.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n

<\/i><\/i><\/i><\/span> When is the CLEP Test offered?<\/p>

\n

At the 69色情视频 Testing Center, CLEP is offered every Wednesday, once per day. We may be adding more days\/times soon!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n

<\/i><\/i><\/i><\/span> Can I re-test?<\/p>

\n

Yes, you can re-test 90 days after your initial CLEP exam.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n

<\/i><\/i><\/i><\/span> What is the format of the test?<\/p>

\n

Students take CLEP exams on a computer and exams\u00a0contain multiple-choice questions and some writing\/speaking portions depending on\u00a0the exam subject. C<\/span>LEP exams take about 90\u2013120 minutes to complete, depending on the exam subject.\u00a0<\/span>Students receive their CLEP exam scores immediately after completing the exam (except for College Composition and Spanish with Writing).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n

<\/i><\/i><\/i><\/span> How are CLEP tests scored?<\/p>

\n

<\/i><\/i><\/i><\/span> I am bilingual, should I take the CLEP language test?<\/p>

\n

If you have experience in Spanish, French or German taking the CLEP language exam could result in up to two years worth of college credits by taking the combined Level 1 and Level 2 exam.The language exams are designed to measure knowledge and ability equivalent to that of students who have completed one to two years of college language study. Questions on the language exams require test takers to comprehend written and spoken foreign language.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
