*English Composition with Essay
For CCBC, students may take
the English Composition with Essay CLEP subject examination and if
receiving a score of 50+, the student will receive credit equivalent to
ENGL 101. Students do not receive an instant score report. Tests need to
be administered by a certain date in order to be read and graded and
then the score will be mailed to the receiving institution, in this
case, CCBC. Once the score is mailed, it may take 7-10 business days for
CCBC to receive. See the CCBC CLEP link http://www.ccbcmd.edu/testing/essex/clep.html
for test by dates.
**Freshman College Composition with optional essay
Students
interested in taking the Freshman College Composition CLEP test for
CCBC, in order to receive credit for ENGL 102, will also need to
complete the optional essay for the test. The optional essay, consisting
of two handwritten essays, needs to be ordered 7-10 days before a
scheduled appointment. Testing candidates will need to provide a credit
card number to Testing Center staff so the test can be ordered from the
College Board. Testing candidates, when calling to arrange an
appointment to take the Freshman College Composition test, along with
the optional essay, will need to be prepared to provide a credit card
number in order for the test to be administered. It will take 7-10
business days for the optional essay to be received.
