College Level Examination Program (CLEP)
CLEP is a means of obtaining college credit by examination. When you pass a CLEP exam, course credit will be added to your °µºÚ±¬ÁÏ transcript if you select °µºÚ±¬ÁÏ as the score recipient. Unofficial transcripts can be processed immediately if the exam is taken at CTC. Official score reports will be processed when received from College Board.
If you are taking CLEP for another institution, your official score report will be sent to you and the institution you designate to determine transcripted credit.
