CLEP和AP

College Level Examination Program (CLEP)

The College Level Examination Program (CLEP) offers students the opportunity to earn college credit by examination. Rhode Island College requires a score of 50 or higher in order to earn the equivalent RIC course credit. Students may not take a CLEP test if they already earned credit for the equivalent course listed. Half of the 36 CLEP exams currently available satisfy Gen Ed requirements, a number of others count in various majors and the remainder as elective credit. In addition to accelerating one’s progress to degree, a CLEP exam may help a student who needs a few more credits in order to graduate (including any CLEP test for which elective credit is awarded).

CCRI is the available testing center in RI. Approximate cost for a test is $110 and practice tests are available. CLEP results should be sent to the Records Office at the college.
