Free Challenge Exams? - Marcus Aurelius - 07-10-2018
Does anyone know if challenge exams (CLEP, DSST, etc.) are still available for those who are in the military?
RE: Free Challenge Exams? - MNomadic - 07-10-2018
I believe that they are. If there's an on base education center they'd be the ones to coordinate that with.
RE: Free Challenge Exams? - dfrecore - 07-10-2018
Yes, they're still free. But I do think as MNomadic says, you have to be on base to take advantage of that. Other testing centers MAY not have the ability to give them for free like an on-base testing center will.

If this bill passes, veterans may be able to take CLEPs and DSST for free as well.

Maybe it could apply to other credit exams as well like CSU Global, TECEP, and Uexcell.
