CLEP EXAMS
PCC awards credit for the examinations in the College-Level Examination Program for scores at or above the national 50th percentile on the combined, men-women sophomore norms. Examinations must have been taken in the national administration program of CLEP or institutional administrations using the CLEP Microcomputer Scoring System and transmitting student data to Educational Testing Service.
  Course credit cannot be earned from CLEP testing for any course which the student has "attempted."
   A course attempt is defined as a course registration still in effect at the end of the Drop/Add period and which is listed on the student's transcript. If a CLEP exam awards credit for multiple courses and the student has attempted one of the courses but not the other, passing scores on that CLEP exam will award credit for the course not previously attempted.
ADMINISTRATION AND FEES
  Effective July 1, 2001, CLEP exams will be administered by computer only. The cost per exam is $46.00, plus a $10.00 administration fee. At this time, Polk Community College will not be a testing site for these exams. Florida Southern College in Lakeland will be the closest administration site. You may contact the FSC testing office at (863) 680-4299 for a schedule of exam dates and times.
SCORES
   Score reports are mailed approximately three to four weeks after testing for all exams except English Composition with Essay, which takes 6_10 weeks for scores to be reported. Score reports are mailed to the student and to the college identified as the score recipient at the time of testing. Polk Community College's score recipient code is 5548.
Score reports must be official and sent directly to PCC from Educational Testing Services (ETS). Scores are maintained by
ETS for 20 years. If scores are more than 20 years old and cannot be obtained from ETS, credit will not be awarded. Official
score reports may be obtained by requesting them in writing from ETS. CLEP Program - ETS. P. O. Box 6600, Mail Stop 18Q, Princeton, NJ 08541-6600 or by calling for more information at (609) 771-7865. Cost per official transcript of all CLEP scores if $15 and takes approximately one week to process.
