Many people with military experience are familiar with the DANTES (Defense Activity for Non-Traditional Education Support) Standardized Exams. The tests are administered by Education Service Officers to military personnel and, more recently, by participating post-secondary institutions or by Educational Testing Service regional offices for civilian examinees under the name DSST. Sinclair awards credit for the DANTES Examinations based on the scores earned. The amount of credit awarded is determined by the Academic Credit Assessment Information Center and academic departments. Please contact the Academic Credit Assessment Information Center (Room 11346, 937-512-2800) for a list of DANTES exams and the Sinclair Community College course equivalent. Additional information regarding DANTES is available at www.getcollegecredit.com.
