Understanding ACE Credit Recommendations
Facilitating College Credit Through Standardized Examinations
The American Council on Education (ACE) evaluates and recommends college credit for various learning experiences, including standardized examinations such as the College-Level Examination Program (CLEP) and DSST exams. These recommendations serve as a guideline for colleges and universities to consider when awarding academic credit.
The Role of ACE in Credit Recommendations
ACE conducts thorough evaluations of standardized exams to determine their equivalency to college-level coursework. For instance, ACE recommends a credit-granting score of 50 for most CLEP exams, suggesting that this score reflects a level of competency comparable to earning a grade of C in the corresponding college course.

Institutional Policies Vary
Each college or university establishes its own policies regarding the acceptance of ACE credit recommendations. We encourage students to consult directly with their institution's academic advisors or registrars to understand specific credit transfer policies. American Council on Education
