Education Benefits

CLEP testing
CLEP credit-by-exam tests are widely accepted by colleges and universities. In addition, by passing these examinations you can earn one-third or more of the credits you need for a college degree. If you haven't started taking your CLEP exams yet, then contact your education service office to find out you can get started. If you have already taken your CLEP exams, then the next step is search for military-friendly schools that are VA-approved and experienced with the CLEP and other credit-by exam tests.
