CLEP Exams at Holy Family University

Holy Family University is a private Catholic university in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It is sponsored by the Sisters of the Holy Family of Nazareth and serves students at its main campus in Northeast Philadelphia, with additional locations in the region. The university emphasizes a values-based education rooted in the Catholic intellectual tradition.

Holy Family offers undergraduate and graduate study across a range of fields, including business, education, nursing and health professions, social sciences, and the liberal arts. It is especially known for programs in nursing and other health-related areas, as well as professional preparation for working adults and transfer students. The university combines classroom study with practical, career-oriented learning.

For CLEP and transfer-credit purposes, Holy Family University is a regionally accredited institution, which is the key baseline many colleges use when evaluating outside credit. Students seeking to use CLEP scores or transfer coursework should confirm in advance how a specific exam or course will apply to their intended program. Credit acceptance can vary by major, course equivalency, and degree requirements.

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