The CLEP provides a method of earning college credit by taking examinations in various subject areas. Union County College recognizes CLEP scores and will allow credit in most subject areas if scores are in the 50th percentile or above.

Credit will not be given where there is evidence of previous academic work.

The Academic Placement Testing Office at Union County College, Cranford campus, is able to provide more information about the CLEP examination program to interested applicants.
