CLEP Examinations

Students may receive academic credit, up to a total of 30 credit hours, for satisfactory results on any of the College Level Examination Program (CLEP) general and subject examinations administered through the College Entrance Examination Board. CLEP credits may not be applied toward a student’s major coursework.

Students who are native speakers of a language other than English as indicated on the enrollment application, or whose secondary education was conducted in a language other than English, cannot receive CLEP credit for any language course at a level they would not be eligible to take at UT according to departmental prerequisites. Final assessment of foreign-language credit will be determined by the Department of Languages and Linguistics after the student’s arrival on campus.
