  • Students may receive credit by examination if they have not previously registered for the course in question at Grand Valley or elsewhere.
  • The credits will count toward graduation but will not be used in computing the grade point average.
  • The maximum number of credits by examination (AP, IB, and CLEP – combined) that students may apply toward the baccalaureate is 32 hours. There is no limit to DSST credits.
  • 参考 博天堂官方目录 for the most current catalog information.

Equivalency applies beginning April 2023. 

注意: minimum scores and equivalencies are subject to change. 

Advanced Placement (AP) Program

The Advanced Placement (AP) program, a service of the College Board, allows students to earn college credits while they are still in high school.

Grand Valley State University will grant credit for scores of 3, 4, or 5 on the AP tests. In order to receive credit, the student must request that the College Board send score reports to the university. When Grand Valley receives the AP scores (usually in early July), students who have earned the appropriate score will be awarded credit. Each student who earns credit will receive an evaluation indicating the credit awarded.

GVSU AP school code: 1258

College Level Examination Program (CLEP)

CLEP is a national program of credit by examination that offers students the opportunity to earn college credits for college-level achievement. 个人阅读, on-the-job experience, 成人学校, or other life experience may prepare students to earn college credit by examination.

• CLEP tests are appropriate for returning adult students, graduating high school seniors, and for currently enrolled college students.

• CLEP credit is applied as two-year college transfer credit.

• Students must earn the last 30 credits toward their degree at Grand Valley; therefore, a student nearing graduation must get a Residency Waiver approved before the exam is taken.

• The student must request that scores be sent to Grand Valley so that credit may be awarded.

• GVSU CLEP school code: 1258
