Solution

The statement about credit for a CLEP exam that is true is C. Colleges often allow students to take a CLEP exam to test out of a course they are enrolled in.

CLEP (College Level Examination Program) exams are designed to test proficiency in a subject area in order to bypass a college course. If a student demonstrates sufficient knowledge through the CLEP exam, they can earn college credit without having to take the course. This is a common practice in many colleges and universities.

The other statements are generally not true. Most colleges do not award credit for a CLEP exam if a student has previously failed the equivalent course (A), they do not award extra credit if a student passes a course and then takes a CLEP exam on the same subject (B), and they do not use CLEP exams as a way for students to make up credit for a course they've failed (D).
