This course will prepare you to pass the College Board’s CLEP College Composition exam. Our goal as creators of this course is to provide you with an accessible and affordable pathway to higher education by obtaining college credit.

This examination contains multiple-choice questions and two essay assignments that will test your skills in analysis, argumentation and synthesis.

Through the guidance of Dr. Dana (Dean) Simpson, from Tufts University, this course will review materials to improve both your awareness of a variety of logical, structural and grammatical relationships within sentences and your ability to use authentic materials and perform rhetorical analysis.

All of those skills are taught in most first-year college writing courses.

“College Composition” is a completely self-paced course. It has no prerequisites and it is offered entirely for free.
