Written Tests for Validation of Learning Experiences

These consist of a written examination based on the entire content of a course. Tests in Spanish may be prepared by the Spanish faculty of the University. The tests in English and mathematics may be prepared and administered by CLEP, by the Advanced Placement tests of the College Board or by the English and mathematics faculty of the University. Passing scores on the CLEP will be those recommended by the American Council on Education for examinations given in English.

Freshmen who get a score of 560 or more in the Mathematics or 580 or more in the English section of the PAA test, may take proficiency examinations in the basic courses of those disciplines in which such courses are obtained at least fifteen (15) workdays before the beginning of classes. Each campus will make the necessary arrangements so that students will be able to take one or more examinations within the specified time.
