Hey fam! So I’ve pretty much decided I'm gonna take a CLEP exam, but I've got no clue where I can actually take one. Do you guys know where I can find a testing center for CLEP exams? I’m trying to plan ahead so I don't end up missing deadlines.
Hey there! Great decision on pursuing a CLEP exam! You'll find that CLEP exams are administered at over 2,000 testing centers across the country, which includes many colleges and universities as well as some independent testing organizations. A convenient way to find a testing center is to visit the official College Board website where they provide a CLEP Test Center Search tool. Just pop in your zip code or city and state, and it will list the closest centers where you can take the exam.
It's a good idea to reach out to a few centers since each site sets its own schedule and registration process. Also, not all centers offer every CLEP exam, so make sure to check that your desired test is available where you plan to go. Lastly, don't wait too long to schedule your exam; test centers can fill up, especially toward the end of the school year. Good luck with your studying and on your CLEP exam!
