Earn College Credit for Free

Airmen can often complete an associate degree from the Community College of the Air Force without sitting in a traditional classroom by using college-level testing provided through the Defense Activity for Non-Traditional Education Support (DANTES). The DANTES testing program awards credit to students who demonstrate knowledge in a variety of subjects. Examinations are free to servicemembers. Study guides and samples tests for these programs are available to help Airmen gauge whether they have the knowledge to pass the actual examinations.
