Challenge Exam

Strayer University offers students the opportunity to obtain credit through its Challenge Exam program. Challenge Exams are not offered if comparable CLEP or DSST examinations are available. Students are encouraged to meet with their Academic Advisor to discuss credit options and/or CLEP/DSST examinations. Challenge exam credits do not fulfill residency requirements. See the Fees section for applicable charges. Students must pass at least 70% of the examination questions. If a student fails a Challenge Exam, the student must register for that particular course at Strayer University in order to obtain credit for the course.
