If I were to bet, I would lay down 10 to 1 odds that yes, they will accept the CLEP English Composition, but it could be only English Comp I or II leaving you with one class to do. So given the hell, you would have to go through doing English Comp at Sophia/Study.com, I would take the remaining English Comp at WGU.
Having said that, they might accept CLEP English Comp for Business school and not for IT school or vice versa. And maybe you get lucky, and they accept it for you and not someone else.
This brings up another topic. This thread created a lot of confusion about what Sophia credits are accepted and what's not at WGU. (not blaming you btw)

Foundational courses are accepted according to the WGU Transfer list for IT school but not Business school. WGU accepts visual Communications.
This makes the Sophia Equivalency List on Wiki not accurate: (Maybe change some to both Yes/No)

True, they seem strangely cagey about that info. I suspect you're right too, that the CLEP exam will count for at least one English course. Though, I'd be surprised if there's a case-by-case evaluation as that could leave them open to allegations of discrimination; the same rules should apply to everyone.
Regardless, I was hoping someone might be able to post the results of an official - and hopefully recent - transcript evaluation since that seems like the best non-speculative answer available in lieu of any official info from WGU.
I recently started the English Comp I with Sophia, so I figure I'll at least have that class covered in the event the CLEP exam only counts for one of WGU's English classes (hoping it would count for Comp II in that case).
