Exams to meet college coursework requirements

An alternative to taking formal course work would be to demonstrate your knowledge of a subject through obtaining an acceptable score on credit-bearing examinations offered by one of the following organizations:

College Level Examination Program (CLEP) Exam http://www.collegeboard.com/student/test...mlExternal Link
Defense Activity for Non-Traditional Education Support (DANTES) Subject Standardized Tests (DSST) exam
DSST | Get College Credit Link
Excelsior College Exams Excelsior College | Excelsior College
American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages (ACTFL)
American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages (ACTFL) Examination in Lieu of Content Core.
Please select NYS Teacher Certification on the ACTFL website so ACTFL will post your grades, on an electronic site, for the Office of Teaching Initiatives to access.

If you take such exams, you must request a sealed, official score report that includes your full name, last 4 digits of your Social Security number and date of birth be sent to the Office of Teaching at: New York State Education Department, Office of Teaching Initiatives, 89 Washington Ave, Albany, NY 12234 or to the BOCES to which you applied to for certification. If for any reason the exam providers are unable to include this information on the transcript, they may attach a cover letter in the sealed envelope. Transcripts submitted without the requested identifying information will not be reviewed.
