Students should expect credit decisions to depend on the specific exam, course equivalency, score, and degree program requirements. The most reliable source for current CLEP acceptance and transfer rules is the university's official admissions or registrar information.

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