For transfer and credit-by-exam planning, Mount Saint Mary College is the kind of institution where students should confirm policies directly with the college before relying on outside credit. CLEP and other exam credits are typically evaluated through institutional transfer rules, and acceptance can depend on the exam, score, and the student’s program of study. Because policies can change, the registrar or admissions office is the best source for current guidance.

Students may also have options involving CLEP®, DSST, AP, ACE, or NCCRS credits, depending on Mount Saint Mary 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. Mount Saint Mary College transfer credits should therefore be reviewed against the specific degree program.
