Students receive appropriate credit provided they have not attempted comparable credit at the college level in the appropriate general education area, received credit through the College Entrance Examination Board (CEEB), or in the specific discipline.

No credit will be awarded for a subject matter examination if the student has already earned any course credit in the subject area.

Dual credit on CLEP is not allowed for similar examinations. For example, a student may earn credit on the CLEP general examination in English composition or on the subject matter examination in English composition, but not on both; on college algebra or on college algebra/trigonometry, but not on both.

In accordance with the articulation agreement and because CLEP credit is regarded in the same category as transfer credit, students who have earned CLEP credit in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the A.A. degree from a Florida public institution will be awarded credit on the basis of their presentation of the A.A. degree. The University of West Florida will not evaluate individually the credits on which the A.A. degree is based.

Transfer students who have completed a General Studies program at a Florida public institution and whose transcript is so marked will be considered to have completed the General Studies requirements at UWF. A second evaluation of CLEP credits will not be undertaken at this University.

CLEP credits for transfer students other than those identified in the above sections will be awarded according to the guidelines stipulated by the Florida Administrative Code. Contact the Office of Admissions for detailed information.
