    Default A question about CLEP

    Hi everyone, I have a question about CLEP. My question is. Does anyone know how much Thomas Edison State College charges to transfer in Clep credits. You know something along the lines of 5 dollars a credit. or 60 dollars for test. I was just wondering how much it costs. I plan to get my degree through them. Also does anybody know the going rate for EC and Charter Oak. Thank you everyone for your help. Adrian.

    Hi Adrian,

    It doesn't work like that. There is no "per credit" charge to transfer your credits in. Each school charges certain enrollment, registration, graduation fees etc., but the fees remain the same regardless of whether you transfer in one or a hundred and one credits.

    Of course, you will need to pay to initially EARN your credits, but that cost varies depending on how you choose to earn them (ie, via testing out, via online classes, via in-the-seat classes, community college, etc.).

    Hope that helps,
    Snazzlefrag

    Adrian, it would be helpful if you posted your question in only one of the categories on this forum. I've noticed that you have posted the same exact question in multiple categories.
