CLEP Tests
About
GBSC has evaluated the CLEP tests below and has preapproved them for transfer into GBSC degree programs provided the student receives a score of 50 or higher. All tests are equivalent to 3 credit courses unless otherwise noted.
Also, check out SOPHIA.ORG courses for another affordable way to earn alternative credit.
Not all of these tests are required for all degrees — students are encouraged to work with their advisors to determine good options.
Here’s how to take advantage of this opportunity!
- Review the list below to determine which CLEP tests you want to take
- Register and complete the tests through the CollegeBoard
3. Ask CLEP to send us your exam scores (send to registrar@gbs.edu or Office of the Registrar, God’s Bible School and College, 1810 Young Street, Cincinnati, Ohio 45202)
