No, we are a limited test center which means we only test our students (CT Community Colleges). 
Non-CTCC students should go to CLEP's website to find an open test center.

The total cost is $105.

First, students purchase their ticket for $90 (price as of 7/1/22). Tickets can be purchased via the CLEP Account Portal.

With that said, NVCC does not accept the following 4 CLEP exams for credit:

We offer 2 exams that can grant credit for Spanish. 

• Spanish Language offers up to 9 credits of Spanish (SPA*H101, H102, H201)  
• Spanish with Writing offers up to 12 credits of Spanish (SPA*H101, H102, H201, H202).

The main difference between these tests is that the Spanish with Writing test is longer and is not recommended to students who have never had to write academically or professionally in Spanish. You should discuss which test is best for you with your Academic Advisor.
