DANTES is one of the best kept secrets in the academic world. Very few schools promote it and most college counselors don't even know what it is or how it works. But you have come to the right place as this is the most comprehensive website available for information on CLEP and DANTES testing.
DANTES, also called DSST, is similar to the CLEP program. This is how it works: you pick a subject, take a test in it and if you pass, you will receive college credit. It sounds too good to be true and too easy but it works and thousands of students do it every year.
In fact, anyone, any age can take a CLEP test. Those in the military can even take them for free!
There are 37 different DANTES tests that you can take. These are administered via computer at a testing center on campus or paper and pencil at some locations.
To begin you can browse our DANTES products page which includes test descriptions or you can visit our New Student Center to find out how the entire process works, step-by-step. You are closer to your degree than you think!
