Which Colleges Accept the CLT Test? Complete List

Have you heard of the CLT exam and are wondering which schools accept it? The CLT has been growing in popularity every year since it was launched, and currently it is accepted by nearly 200 colleges. What colleges accept the CLT test? This guide lists every school that accepts the CLT, and we also give an overview of what the CLT is and why certain schools accept scores from it, while others don't. What Is the CLT? The Classical Learning Test (CLT) is an online college entrance exam for 11th and 12th graders. It was created in 2015 as an alternative to the SAT and ACT. Some students prefer to take the CLT because it is online, you get your scores quickly, and it has more of a focus on classic literature. The CLT consists of three sections: • Verbal Reasoning • Grammar/Writing • Quantitative Reasoning Each of these sections consists of 40 questions. There is also an optional essay portion of the exam students can choose to take. Without the essay, the CLT takes a total of two hours to complete: • 40 minutes for Verbal Reasoning • 35 minutes for Grammar/Writing • 45 minutes for Quantitative Reasoning • (optional) 30 minutes for essay The CLT is scored on a scale of 0-120.

CLT Testing Timeline

Philosophy of Testing The following timeline is a suggestion based on what works for many students. That being said, each student is different, so the timeline should be approached with each student’s individual situation, strengths, and weaknesses in mind. Because we strongly believe in educational freedom and choice, we trust that the student’s parents and teachers know best what their student needs. CLT • Take the CLT early! It is beneficial to start even the summer before your junior year. Many competitive scholarships that offer the greatest merit have early deadlines—as early as November of senior year—so make sure to check college and scholarship applications deadlines. Qualifying test scores need to be achieved prior to these deadlines. • Early CLT test scores also help narrow college choices by revealing which scholarships are offered in your score range. That being said, if your scores are lower than you were hoping . . . • Take the CLT often! Taking the CLT as often as it is offered is a great way to relieve testing anxiety and improve scores. Then you can send your best score to • Breathe! Rest easy knowing your CLT score demonstrates your critical thinking and reasoning skills, results of a quality education.

CLT Practice Test (2023)

CLT Practice Test The Classic Learning Test (CLT) was developed in 2015 as an alternative to the SAT and ACT college entrance exams. Designed to address bias issues found within the SAT and ACT delivery method, the CLT tests a student’s intellectual aptitude, achievement, and moral reasoning, focusing on logic, reason, and reading. On this page: • • • • • • • • About the Exam There are some things you should consider before deciding to study for and take the CLT. First, the CLT is not a commonly accepted entrance exam at most colleges and universities in the United States. The colleges where this exam is accepted tend to be smaller private and religious educational institutions. However, its appeal in its non-traditional examination subjects and the ability to use the remote-proctor option has increased its popularity. Second, the exam is online only at a designated partner school testing center or at home, using a remote proctor. The lack of testing options could be prohibitive if you do not have easy access to a computer, the internet, or other required technology. Some test centers provide the exam device, but most do not. If your school requires you to provide the device, you may bring your laptop, desktop, or tablet. Eligibility The CLT exam is promoted as a college entrance examination for high school juniors and seniors. However, the exam is open to candidates who have completed high school and have yet to attend college. Exam Outline Review The CLT contains 120 mul...

These days about 250 colleges accept the CLT, nearly all of them Christian colleges. Many of the students who take the CLT attend private Christian high schools or were home-schooled. While it’s become well-known in those circles, the CLT has struggled to make much headway outside that religious niche. But that may be changing, thanks to Florida. A new law signed by the state’s governor, Ron DeSantis, allows the CLT to be submitted in order to qualify for the Florida Bright Futures Scholarships Program. In addition, New College of Florida, which has found itself Why would Florida care about a fairly obscure test? Mack spelled out the rationale If the SAT aligned with the vision he refers to, then presumably another test wouldn’t be needed. Meanwhile Tate is straightforward in his criticism.
