The University awards credit for satisfactory scores on the Subject Examinations offered through the CLEP program. Only freshmen and sophomore students are eligible to take CLEP exams without prior permission from a department chair. Juniors and seniors may attempt CLEP exams with the permission of the department chair or dean of the school of the discipline in which a particular exam is offered. A score of 50 is satisfactory in all subject exams except General Chemistry where a score of 48 indicates passing.
