CLEP Credits at Washington State University

Washington State University is a public research university in Pullman, Washington, in the Palouse region of eastern Washington. It is the state’s land-grant university and the flagship campus of the Washington State University system. The university also operates additional campuses and extension locations across Washington.

WSU offers a broad range of undergraduate, graduate, and professional study through colleges in fields such as agriculture, business, engineering, education, health sciences, arts and sciences, and veterinary medicine. The university is especially known for research and outreach tied to land-grant missions, including agriculture, food systems, veterinary medicine, and community engagement. Its Pullman campus is the main academic center of the system.

For CLEP and other transfer-credit questions, Washington State University evaluates credit through its own academic policies rather than granting automatic credit for every exam or course. Credit acceptance can depend on the exam, score, the student’s major, and how the credit fits degree requirements. Students should consult WSU’s official transfer and credit-by-exam resources before relying on any outside coursework or exam credit.

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