One way to earn college credit for what you have already learned is by taking an examination (test).

Florida State College at Jacksonville has several options for credit by examination whereby you may earn college credits for what you have learned in life or on the job. This may allow you to skip taking some courses and complete your degree faster. The cost of earning credit by exam is oftentimes less than half the cost of tuition, and don’t forget the savings in your valuable time!

Students may earn up to 45 semester hours credit towards a degree through credit by examination, which may be a combination of subject standardized tests and/or transfer credit.

  1. FSCJ's assessment and certification centers administer CLEP, DSST, and Excelsior College Examinations (at approved Pearson VUE sites) exams and maintain a list of our current course equivalents for each exam. The State Articulation Coordinating Committee determines course equivalents.
  2. FSCJ also offers College Course Challenge Exams (CCCE). These are developed and approved annually for use at the college.
  3. Below is a cross-matrix of all CLEP, DSST, Excelsior, and CCCE courses that are offered at the College and their course equivalents.
