CLEP Exams at Seattle University

Seattle University is a private Jesuit university in Seattle, Washington, located on Capitol Hill near downtown. It is part of the Jesuit Catholic tradition and serves undergraduate and graduate students in a urban setting. The university emphasizes academic rigor, service, and engagement with the surrounding community.

Seattle University offers a broad range of undergraduate, graduate, and professional programs through its colleges and schools. It is especially known for programs in business, law, nursing, education, science and engineering, and the arts and sciences. The university also highlights experiential learning, service learning, and preparation for professional practice.

For CLEP and transfer-credit purposes, Seattle University evaluates prior college-level learning through its own transfer and credit policies. Students should expect credit acceptance to depend on the specific exam, score, course equivalency, and degree requirements. Because policies can change and may vary by program, students should confirm current CLEP and transfer-credit rules directly with the university.

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