To reschedule a test, you must call at least 24 hours before your appointment time. If you reschedule within 24 hours of your scheduled exam, you will forfeit your testing fee.

Re-test Policy:
A CLEP may not be retaken within a 6-month period. This waiting period provides the student with an opportunity to spend additional time preparing for the exam or the option of taking a classroom course.

Score Reports:
You will receive an unofficial score report immediately upon completion of your CLEP exam. However, the English Composition with Essay exam score report will be mailed usually 2-3 weeks after the test date. A score recipient (college, employer, or certifying agency) that is selected through the software on the day of the exam is sent one time free of charge. Additional CLEP transcripts can be obtained for a $20.00 fee by contacting College Board/CLEP directly.

If you designate UCF as the recipient of your official CLEP transcript, it will take approximately 7-10 business days from the date of request through College Board/CLEP for the University Testing Center to receive the transcript. It will take an additional 1-2 weeks for the score to be entered and updated. Please contact the University Testing Center directly at utc@mail.ucf.edu or 407-823-5109 if you need to check on receipt of an official CLEP transcript.
