 What is the DSST?

The DSST (Dantes Subject Standardized Tests) is an examination-for-credit program developed by Thomson Prometric that expands and complements the range of tests offered by the CLEP (College Level Examination Program) and other similar programs.

Through DSST, you can receive college credit for what you already know, including knowledge acquired outside the traditional classroom.

Thirty-seven different DSST examinations are available in fields related to Applied Technology, Mathematics, Humanities, Physical Science, Business, and Social Science. A complete list of DSST exams can be found in the DSST Candidate Information Bulletin, available at all AMIDEAST offices and on the DSST Web site.

 What is the CLEP?

The College Level Examination Program (CLEP) allows you to obtain recognition for college-level achievement on examinations and earn credits in undergraduate degree programs and universities in the United States and overseas.

 Wherever or however you have learned and no matter what your age, you can take CLEP exams.  If the results are acceptable to your college or university, you may receive course credit, thus shortening a degree program or allowing you to begin with more advanced courses than would otherwise be possible.

 CLEP offers examinations in thirty-four different subject areas.  Each exam is ninety minutes in length.

How do I get credit for CLEP? 

 What is the SAT Subject Test?

Some universities require only the General Test while others will request applicants to take Subject Tests related to their planned area of study.

Subject Tests currently available include the following:

When I apply to universities, what admission tests may I be expected to take?

TOEFL.  If English is not your native language, you must submit a TOEFL score.  Many institutions require a minimum score of about 80 on the Internet-based (iBT) TOEFL, about 213 on the computer-based version of the TOEFL, or about 550 on the paper-based version for both undergraduate and graduate students to enter their academic programs.  A few schools may not require the TOEFL if you completed high school or college in the United States or if you graduated from a four-year, degree-granting institution where English is the language of instruction.

SAT^® I.  The SAT  I may be required of undergraduate applicants.  No standard score is required; results are weighed with secondary school grades and other elements of the undergraduate application.

SAT^® II.  Each SAT II examination tests knowledge in a specific subject area.  One or more may be required of some undergraduate applicants.

GRE^®.  Most graduate applicants are required to submit results on the Graduate Record Examination general test and sometimes subject tests as well.  Some graduate programs require a minimum 450 verbal score; others may also have a 420 minimum required on the quantitative section.
