CLEP
The College-Level Examination Program (CLEP) helps students earn college credit for prior learning.
If you are interested in taking the CLEP to earn credit at Casper College for prior learning, be sure to make an appointment with a Student Success Counselor before scheduling with the Testing Center to take the exam. We want to be sure the CLEP is right for you. Check out the CLEP info guide for more details.
