Ohio CLEP Exam Fee Assistance

Ohio students in public and nonpublic schools may qualify for a College Board fee reduction on CLEP exams. CLEP follows the same fee reduction eligibility requirements as AP. To review the criteria, visit the AP Exam Fee Reductions page.

The CLEP exam fee reduction is $44 per exam.

• The state of Ohio will pay $33  per exam.
• The remaining student portion is $20 per exam; however, Ohio State law requires the responsible public school or school district to pay the remaining $20 per exam, not the students.

What Schools Must Do 

The CLEP coordinator must complete the steps found on the State Funded Invoicing page. The State Funding Available for CLEP page gives an overview of the program and includes essential links and other key information.

Invoicing Process

• Schools are billed twice a year for tests taken with a voucher—once in January and once in July. 
• Before invoices are generated, CLEP coordinators must log in to My CLEP to enter the number of CLEP vouchers used by reduced-fee-eligible students by the deadline noted in the email reminders.
