Considering the Academic Disciplines through the Lens of Faith

About Prepped for College

Prepped for College considers the insights and claims of various academic disciplines such as sociology, psychology, economics, and history via biblical and theological frameworks. By offering biblical and theological perspectives on the topics addressed in College Level Exam Preparation (CLEP) study materials, Prepped for College helps students think about the academic disciplines through the lens of a biblical worldview. As students prepare to pass CLEP examinations via the CLEP study guides available from College Board, they will receive instruction from biblical and theological experts that will reinforce and develop their faith. CLEP examinations are accepted by a variety of colleges and universities for college credit.
