What's the maximum amount of credits I can receive from the CLEP exam?
Each CLEP exam is worth 3, 6, or 12 credits, depending on the
exam. Most subject specific exams are 3 credits each, the broader
exams are usually 6 credits, and some of the language exams are 12
credits.
The maximum amount of CLEP credits that can go to a degree is
approximately 30 credits at most colleges, although some colleges
allow around 60 credits. A few programs, such as the CollegePlus!
program, help students test out of apprximately 90 credits, while
still earning a fully accredited degree.
