College-Level Examination Program (CLEP)

Many students gain college-level knowledge outside the classroom. The College Entrance Examination Board's (CEEB) College-Level Examination Program (CLEP) provides an opportunity for you to demonstrate that knowledge for possible college credit and advanced placement. Official CLEP transcripts must be submitted to MATC for evaluation. CLEP credits will only be transferred if you are admitted to a program at MATC. Visit the College Board website for registration information.

The local CLEP testing site is the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater. Contact the UW-Whitewater Testing Office at 262-472-5613 or visit UW-Whitewater's website for scheduling information.
