Credit Through Examination Programs
You may demonstrate proficiency in certain subject areas by examination through the College Level Examination Program (CLEP) or Defense Activity for Non-Traditional Education Support (DANTES).; The CLEP general studies tests are not accepted for credit except as part of an A.A. degree accepted for transfer. Course credit for CLEP and DANTES exams is limited to three course equivalents for each examination program. For details on how these tests are accepted at Eckerd, download the PDFs below.
