I'm not sure if this has been posted yet, but I just saw it on the DSST Facebook page.
"Starting March 13, military service member students who havenât passed their first DSST exam will be eligible for one FREE retake!
Until then, we have several practice exams available online."

I wonder how long this promotion will last? I also wonder if it's only for test not passed before March 13 or any test also taken after that time.

Lasting until 30 April with the voucher being good through 30 June. Retake period dropped from 90 days to 30. Not valid for tests taken before 13 March unfortunately.

slightly confused.... So if we failed an exam before march 13 we can't retake it.
If we take one now and fail it, then we can retake it until April 30?
This would be good. I haven't taken DSST principles of finance yet, but the test expires on the 31 of march. If I'm understanding correctly, I could take this test on say march 28 and if I fail be able to retake it before march 31.

I started this journey in the summer of 2016. I hoped to be done sooner, but I am still proud of the rate at which I have gotten my schooling done with respect to the many months of military training and deployments I have undergone.

You can retest 30 days after any failure that occurred on 13 March and onward with the voucher. WHat do you mean the test expires?

On tesus website they show that 3/31/2017 the principles of finance exam expires and has to be reapproved.

At this point in time, the ACE-recommendation expires on 3/31/17. Usually, they post it on the website that they are discontinuing an exam if they don't plan on offering it, and they haven't, so you can probably assume that they will renew, and it will just take a few weeks before they show it as continuing for another 3 years or so.
I personally wouldn't take it after 3/31, until you see the renewal pop up. If you want to take it after 3/31, I would do the Study.com course, or Davar, or Penn Foster.
