College Level Examination Program


The School of Nursing participates in the College Level Examination Program (CLEP), which is administered by the College Entrance Examination Board. Candidates for admission who have been out of school five years or more and who have not attended college may receive degree credit based on the CLEP General Examination. Students may earn a maximum of 24 credits for the General Examination, provided they score at or above the 50th percentile. Candidates for admission will be granted degree credit for CLEP Subject Examinations approved by the school, provided they achieve a score at or above the 50th percentile. For further information, contact the College Entrance Examination Board, Princeton, NJ 08541 (609-921-9000).

If you are considering CLEP exams for any undergraduate program, please consult with the program director for further guidance.
