For students considering CLEP or other transfer credit options, Gannon is a school where credit acceptance is determined by institutional policy rather than by a universal rule. CLEP scores, transfer coursework, and other prior learning are typically reviewed by the university on a case-by-case basis. Students should confirm in advance whether a specific exam or course will apply to their intended program.

Students may also have options involving CLEP®, DSST, AP, ACE, or NCCRS credits, depending on GU'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. Gannon University transfer credits should therefore be reviewed against the specific degree program.
