CLEP Credits at University of Oregon

The University of Oregon is a public research university in Eugene, Oregon. It is the flagship campus of the University of Oregon System and serves students from across Oregon, the United States, and abroad. The university is known for its large residential campus and its location in the Willamette Valley.

UO offers a broad range of undergraduate and graduate study through colleges and schools in areas such as arts and sciences, business, education, journalism and communication, law, music and dance, and architecture and allied arts. It is especially recognized for research activity and for strengths in fields such as environmental studies, journalism, and the arts. Students can pursue traditional majors as well as interdisciplinary programs.

For credit by exam and transfer-credit purposes, the University of Oregon evaluates coursework and external examinations through its own academic policies. CLEP and other exam-based credits are typically considered only when they meet university and departmental standards, and applicability can vary by subject and degree program. Students should confirm current policies before relying on exam credit for degree requirements.

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