College Level Examination Program (CLEP) The College Level Examination Program (CLEP) is a nationally recognized standardized testing through which university credit may be earned or course proficiency verified.

• Testing through the CLEP general examinations is designed to verify competency in general education. These examinations are to be taken prior to the completion of the first semester of enrollment as a freshman at George Fox Univeristy.
• Testing through the CLEP subject examinations provides verification of competency in selected academic fields. These may be taken at any time (unless concurrently enrolled in an equivalent course) and assume competency has been gained in non-classroom settings.
