Test out of some classes to get closer to your degree at UMGC Europe.
National Test Centers (NTCs) offer on-site testing services to include College-Level Examination Program (CLEP), DANTES Subject Standardized Tests (DSST), and Pearson VUE online examinations and certifications. Availability of exams is specific to your location. Please contact your NTC to see what is offered.
Who is Eligible?
Examinations are available to DANTES-funded active duty military servicemembers and eligible civilian employees and, on a space-available basis, to all other examinees who have a U.S. military ID card.
Please note: Eligible civilians will incur a fee for testing. Additionally, if you are active duty military or civilian and not currently enrolled with UMGC, you can have your online internet-based exams officially proctored for a $35 fee. You can pay for exam fees by credit or debit card.

GED is no longer DANTES funded for active duty servicemembers and their families. To test at a military testing center, please create a GED account and then call GED to set your profile to the GED Employer Program. Please ensure GED staff assist you with scheduling your exam as it is not possible to do so online on your own. If you are an eligible servicemember seeking reimbursement, you must make an Electronic Reimbursement Request online with DANTES.
