DSST Credit by Exam Program


 

The nationally recognized DSST Credit-by-Exam Program helps you receive college credits for learning acquired outside the traditional classroom. 

A form of prior learning assessment, DSSTs offer students a cost effective, time saving way to use their knowledge acquired outside of the classroom to accomplish their educational goals.  Visit:  https://getcollegecredit.com/about for additional information.
