College-Level Examination Program (CLEP) 2026-2027
CSU units count toward eligibility for admission. The units may not apply toward Associate
Degrees for Transfer (AD-T) or the baccalaureate degree.
If a student passes more than one CLEP test in the same language other than English,
then only one examination may be applied to the baccalaureate.
For each test in a language other than English, a passing score of 50 is considered
Level I and earns six units of baccalaureate credit; the higher score listed for each
test is considered Level II and earns additional units of credit.
All units listed are semester units.
