30 of 30 CLEP exams accepted
Conditions Clarkson College places on CLEP credit
College Board lists these CLEP scores and credits without an effective year or course equivalents. The current 2026–2027 AA-47 policy requires Course Director/Registrar approval and official documentation, permits only the first attempt, and excludes advanced standing after an I, F or NP in that course. CLEP cannot replace English Composition I/II, Core courses, or science courses requiring a lab. Core Humanities, Healthcare Communication and Ethics/Empathy/Advocacy must be completed at Clarkson; a Humanities exam award does not satisfy the Humanities Core. Natural Sciences can apply only to an eligible nonlab, non-Core requirement confirmed by the college. Biology and Chemistry require clarification before testing. Advanced standing does not meet residence requirements; no numeric CLEP maximum is stated. Each listed language band is three credits, with no duplicate band credit.
