The University of Delaware is a public research university in Newark, Delaware. It is the state’s flagship university and also operates additional campuses and facilities in Delaware. The university serves a large undergraduate and graduate population and is known for a broad academic profile.

It is especially recognized for research activity and for programs that combine classroom learning with applied and experiential opportunities. The university’s academic structure supports both traditional majors and interdisciplinary study.

For students considering CLEP or other transfer credit options, the University of Delaware has policies that allow some prior learning to be evaluated for credit, but acceptance depends on the specific exam, score, course equivalency, and academic program. Students should review the university’s current transfer and credit-by-exam policies before relying on any exam for degree progress. Credit decisions are made by the institution rather than by the testing organization.

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