CLEP examinations cover material taught in courses that most students take as requirements in the first two years of college. Most exams are 90 minutes long and primarily composed of multiple-choice questions, though some exams have fill-ins.  \nNote that examinations in composition and literature have additional 90-minute handwritten-essay sections, except for the College Composition Modular, which provides a 70-minute computerized-essay section. These essays are required for APU students. Handwritten essays are evaluated by faculty from the APU Department of English after a passing score on the multiple-choice section of the CLEP is achieved; these faculty evaluations are final and may not be appealed.  \nThe CLEP program’s policy limits test retakes to every 90 days, which allows students to spend additional time preparing for the exam or the option of taking a classroom course. APU students may request tutoring to prepare for the CLEP exam by contacting the Academic Success Center (ASC) Testing Services.  \nCLEP study guides are available from the CLEP website ([https://clep.collegeboard.org/](https://clep.collegeboard.org/)), the Campus Store ([https://www.bookstore.apu.edu/](https://www.bookstore.apu.edu/)), or any  \nlocal bookstore. Visit the CLEP website for useful tips on assessing and preparing for any of the CLEP exams.  \nTo take a CLEP exam, students must:  \n• Purchase the CLEP exam through the CLEP website. The cost for the exam is $89 and must be paid on the CLEP website by credit or debit card.  \n• Schedule an appointment to take the exam at ASC Testing Services using our online scheduling system ([https://aputesting.youcanbook.me/](https://aputesting.youcanbook.me/)) .  \n• Pay the $30 nonrefundable proctoring fee no later than 3 calendar days prior to appointment.  \n• The fee for any written CLEP essay exams is $10 per exam, payable on the day of appointment.  \nOn the day of the exam, students must:  \n• Provide a paper copy of the CLEP Exam Registration Ticket to the ASC Testing Services proctor. The Exam Registration Ticket is issued by CLEPat the time the exam is purchased.  \n• Bring one form of government-issued identification that shows the student’s legal name, birth date, photo, and signature.  \nMilitary CLEP Candidates  \nCLEP exams are free for eligible military personnel as noted in the chart below. The nonrefundable proctoring fees listed above are required before a test can be administered. All eligible military candidates MUST present a current military identification card and a second form of government-issued photo ID with signature at the time of the exam.  \nCandidate Status CLEP Fee   \n1  \nActive Duty Military No Fee  \nAir Force  \nArmy  \nMarine Corps  \nNavy  \nCoast Guard  \nNational Guard and Reserve Component  \nSpouses and Civilian Employees of: No Fee1  \nAir Force Reserve  \nAir National Guard  \nArmy National Guard  \nArmy Reserve  \nCoast Guard  \nDOD Acquisition Workforce Personnel No Fee1  \nAre eligible for the following exams only:  \nPrinciples of Macroeconomics  \nPrinciples of Microeconomics  \n2 College Level Examination Program (CLEP)  \n\n| Principles of Marketing |  |  |  |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Veterans Veterans must pay the CLEP fee in advance and seek reimbursement from\u003Cbr>the Veterans Benefits Administration using their canceled check or credit card statement as proof of receipt.2\u003Cbr>1 Tests are funded by DANTES.
