Conditions Massachusetts College of Art and Design places on CLEP credit
MassArt allows a maximum of six non-course credits from CLEP in total, toward general education electives only, for students entering or readmitted from 2017-18 onward. It also states: 'MassArt allows students to bring in a total of 30 HART/LA combined transfer credits. Any earned CLEP credits would count towards this allowance of 30 transfer credits. If you have already brought 30 academic transfer credits over to MassArt, you should not take a CLEP exam.' A student who has already earned credit for the equivalent course is not eligible for that exam, and students are directed to consult the Associate Registrar before registering. The college accepts 37 of the 38 CLEP exams but publishes no minimum score or credit amount for any of them.
