CLEP Credits at Capitol College

Capitol College was a private institution in Laurel, Maryland, serving students in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area. It focused on science, engineering, information technology, and related professional fields. The college later became Capitol Technology University.

The institution was known for programs in engineering, computer science, cybersecurity, and other technology-oriented disciplines. Its academic identity emphasized applied learning and career preparation in technical fields. Because the school later changed its name, current program details are best verified through the university’s present catalog and website.

For CLEP and transfer-credit purposes, Capitol College should be treated as a former institution whose policies may have changed over time and whose current successor institution is Capitol Technology University. Students seeking credit evaluation should confirm whether the receiving institution accepts CLEP scores or transfer coursework and how those credits apply to a specific degree plan. Any transfer or exam-credit decision depends on the policies in effect at the time of enrollment and the registrar’s review.

Students may also have options involving CLEP®, DSST, AP, ACE, or NCCRS credits, depending on Capitol College's current policies. Not every alternative credit source is automatically accepted, so verify eligibility before completing a course or exam.

Approved credits may count toward general education, major requirements, electives, or other degree requirements depending on the evaluation. Capitol College transfer credits should therefore be reviewed against the specific degree program.
