The credit shall then be used as elective credit. Students shall not receive CLEP General Examination credit for equivalent courses in which they have already earned credit.

4.3. An institution awarding credit through CLEP may establish scores higher than specified above for Subject and General Examinations if it is established that the higher scores equate to a satisfactory level of performance by students actually enrolled in the equivalent course(s) at that institution.
