Oxnard College faculty have approved passing scores and, when appropriate how CLEP credit will be applied to Oxnard College General Education as provided below:

• A score of 50 or higher (except where noted) is required to grant credit for GE and/or course equivalency for Oxnard College programs.
• An acceptable CLEP score equates to 3 semester units for GE certification purposes.
• Students who have earned credit for a CLEP exam should not take a comparable college course because credit will not be granted for both. 
• Units awarded for CLEP exams will not impact a student's GPA.
• Units awarded for CLEP will not be subject to the unit limits for Credit for Prior Learning or Pass/No Pass grading which otherwise apply within the district. 
• Units awarded for CLEP exams are not counted towards the 12 semester unit residency requirement for an Associate Degree, nor can the units earned be used toward financial aid.
