The Goshen College campus is currently closed as a result of COVID-19. Therefore, in-person testing will be unavailable during this time. We will place a message here when testing resumes.
College Level Examination Program
Goshen College is an open testing center for CLEP tests. Test results can be sent to any college or university desired. Goshen College administers these tests the third Tuesday of each month at 1:00 p.m. in the Administration Building Room 21. Please contact the Registrar’s Office one week in advance of the test date to confirm your testing appointment. In addition to the CLEP exam registration fees paid online, Goshen College charges a $30 test administration fee, payable by cash or check at the testing site.
Please note that CLEP tests may not be used to meet Goshen College CORE requirements, and credit is not granted for CLEP tests which substantially overlap with courses that you have already completed or in which you are currently enrolled. The table of scores, credit and equivalents at the link below was updated in April 2016, in response to new recommendations by the American Council on Education. Scoring and credit that varies from ACE recommendations reflects the actions of Goshen College faculty members.
