CLEP

A student may also obtain credit through the College-Level Examination Program (CLEP) Subject Examinations based on a review by the appropriate academic department. Luther College does not accept credit based on the CLEP General Examination. The subject examinations provide a method by which Luther can evaluate education gained outside the formal class structure and grant college credit for satisfactory work as demonstrated in test performance. Normally, four semester hours of credit may be earned for each CLEP Subject Examination computer-based test with a score of 60 or higher. The examinations must be taken before the beginning of the sophomore year in college and before beginning a college course in the discipline of the test.
