Fees are currently $50 for Exam PLA’s, and $90 for both Demonstrative and Portfolio PLA’s, subject to change. The testing center charges $24 for students wishing to take their CLEP exam on our Kenosha Campus. The computers for professionals and Spanish CFPL tests cost only the $15 testing center administration fee.

1. Please email [email protected] and include your name, student id #, and the course #’s of the course(s) you wish to pursue CFPL. 2.

In that case, only the higher PLA fee will be charged and the student responsibility.
