There are over 2,900 colleges and universities in the US that grant credit to those who pass CLEP exams. The list of colleges can be found here: http://apps.collegeboard.com/cbsearch_clep/searchCLEPColleges.jsp

Most colleges limit CLEP credit to approximately 30 credits per student. However, a few colleges are more generous and will accept 60 or 90 credits.

Hope this helps!
