CLEP Exams for OSU Awards Credit

CLEP exams allow students to earn credit for certain courses for which they know the material.  Unlike Advanced Placement, CLEP is not built around a curriculum but is designed to test students' knowledge of college-level subjects regardless of where they may have gained that knowledge. Students satisfying the minimum scores indicated below can earn credit at OSU-Stillwater or OSU-Tulsa for the equivalent course(s) listed in the table below provided they meet all OSU Academic Regulations pertaining to credit by exam (see below).  OSU does not charge any tuition or fees for credit by exam. The only expenses to the student are the actual cost of the exam and exam administration fees.

*College Composition Exam


College Composition Exam

The CLEP College Composition Exam contains multiple-choice items AND two mandatory essays scored by CLEP.  Essays are only scored twice a month, so candidates may have to wait anywhere from a few days to a few weeks to receive their official scores on this exam.  More information on the exam and how it is scored is available on the CLEP website.  OSU does NOT accept the CLEP College Composition Modular Exam.
