CLEP Honors Awards Program

The CLEP Honors Awards is an annual program that recognizes the various CLEP test centers administering CLEP exams whereby students can earn college credit and achieve their education goals.

We value our longstanding relationships with institutions and organizations committed to increasing access to higher education and commend all of our test centers for their continued support in promoting CLEP.

Award Criteria

The new CLEP Honors Awards will be presented in two categories to a set number of qualifying centers, and awards will be given based on exams administered from July 1–June 30.

Test centers that earn the achievements below will be included on the CLEP website, and two representatives from each winning center will be invited to attend the CLEP Honors Awards Reception during the NCTA (National College Testing Association) Conference.

Note: High school test centers won't be eligible for the awards below. However, the CLEP team is developing a separate awards program to commend CLEP high school testing.
