CLEP Credits at Hawaii Pacific University

Hawaii Pacific University is a private university in Honolulu, Hawaii, with its main campus in downtown Honolulu and additional facilities in the city. It serves a diverse student body and offers programs in a setting that connects academic study with the Pacific region and the broader Asia-Pacific community.

The university offers undergraduate and graduate study across a range of fields, including business, health, nursing, social sciences, and marine-related areas. HPU is known for its urban location, small-college feel, and emphasis on experiential learning and professional preparation.

For CLEP and transfer credit purposes, Hawaii Pacific University is a transfer-friendly institution in the sense that it evaluates prior college-level learning and standardized exam credit through its own policies. Students should confirm in advance whether a specific CLEP exam or transfer course will apply to their intended program, since acceptance can depend on the subject, score, and degree requirements.

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