College Level Examination Program (CLEP)

Newberry College welcomes students of all ages and experiences to our campus. The College awards credit for college-level knowledge and experience by accepting the full range of College-Level Examination Program (CLEP) tests. Assuming an acceptable grade (see list below) on a CLEP examination, Newberry College grants full degree credit. On the basis of an acceptable score, all CLEP credits will be accepted for transfer students. Credit for English 113 (Introduction to Literature and the Research Paper) will not be awarded to students who complete the CLEP examination in English. The web-site for CLEP is http://www.collegeboard.com/student/testing/clep/about.html .
