Notes:
I. Although the CLEP credits do not transfer as direct equivalents to Temple Gen Ed courses, we will allow students to satisfy the designated Gen Ed area with their CLEP Transfer Credits. Current students should refer to their DARS for additional information regarding options for completing remaining GenEd requirements.
II. Students must obtain permission to take any CLEP test from the dean of the college in which they are matriculated.
III. All literature, history, and political science examinations require an essay in order to receive credit at Temple. Students planning to take CLEP tests are urged to do so no later than the semester before they expect to graduate. Information about test dates, fees, and the application process may be obtained from the Measurement and Research Center, 12th Floor, Carnell Hall, Main Campus, 215-204-8611.
IV. Transfer students can earn credit through prior CLEP exams if their scores meet the Temple credit-granting standards. They should have their CLEP scores sent directly to their academic advising center. If that college approves the granting of CLEP credit, it is posted to the student's record by the Office of Academic Records.
V. CLEP credits granted by Temple, and those taken prior to admission to Temple and confirmed by the appropriate Temple department, can be counted toward eligibility for the 45+ Transfer GenEd if the student also has transfer courses from another college or university. See GenEd Transfer Programs.
VI. There is a per credit fee for the posting of any CLEP credits.
VII. Colleges and Schools may have limitations on the type and number of AP credits that can be applied to a degree. For an excel table of School and College specific policies click here or for a pdf version click here.
