For those in the U.S. military who happen to be multi-lingual, you can take the Defense Language Proficiency Test for college credit. The credit recommendations can be found at:

There are three sections of the test: Listening, Reading, and Speaking. It is possible that not all three sections of the test will be available at your testing center. Contact your military college office for more information.
I bring this up because the potential credits earned are HUGE. One of my coworkers recently took the Korean version of the DLPT version 5. At our college office you can only take the Listening and Speaking. She maxed out the version she took, and netted herself 30 credits of Korean (10 lower, 20 upper) for about 5 hours of her time.
