Spanish Supplemental:
The Spanish Supplemental is a multiple-choice exam that covers the fourth level of Spanish grammar and spelling. If you are registered to take a CLEP Spanish test at UT Arlington you are automatically given the Supplemental Exam and should not register for it separately.
If you passed the CLEP Spanish test but did not pass the Supplemental, and would like to re-test then you can sign up for the ASE Spanish Supplemental after three (3) months.
If you took the CLEP Spanish test at another test site and did not claim the credit at another institution (it isn’t transferring to UT Arlington), then contact CLEP to have your scores sent to UT Arlington (CB code 6013) and sign up to take the ASE Spanish Supplemental.
