The University of the Virgin Islands is a public university in the U.S. Virgin Islands, with its main campus on St. Thomas and another campus on St. Croix.

The university is known for serving a Caribbean setting and for programs that connect academic study with the region’s environmental, cultural, and economic context. Students can pursue both undergraduate and graduate study, and the institution emphasizes access and public service.

For CLEP and transfer credit purposes, UVI is a college that students should verify directly with the university before relying on exam scores or outside coursework. Policies can vary by department, program, and degree level, and acceptance is typically subject to institutional review. Students should confirm whether a specific CLEP subject exam or transfer course applies to their intended program.

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