CLEP - College Level Examination Program
What is CLEP?
CLEP is an opportunity for your student to apply for high school credits directly to their college major/minor. In a sentence... CLEP can provide massive college tuition savings to your family by working with your student's high school credits in order to "test out" of college-level courses that are in essence, a repeat of classes they have or will take in high school.
This will enable your student to move efficiently into and through college courses that are specific to his/her major/minor and career path. Students can even graduate from high school already having earned college degrees even before entering college!
