“DANTES covered my exam fees. PrepLion covered the prep. I earned 15 credits in one summer without spending a dime — that's almost a full semester knocked out before I even started using my GI Bill.”
Common questions from service members
Does DANTES cover CLEP exams?
Yes. DANTES (Defense Activity for Non-Traditional Education Support) pays the full exam fee for CLEP and DSST exams for eligible active duty service members. That means $0 out of pocket for the exam itself.
Can I study on deployment?
Yes. PrepLion works as a PWA (Progressive Web App) that functions offline. Download your study materials before deploying, and practice anywhere without an internet connection.
How long does CLEP prep take?
Most military members need 8-20 hours of focused study, depending on prior knowledge. With PrepLion's adaptive study plan, you study only what you need — no wasted time on material you already know.
What if I fail?
DANTES allows retakes after a 3-month waiting period. With PrepLion's pass probability engine, you'll know your chances before you sit for the exam — so you only test when you're ready.
Do veterans get DANTES benefits?
DANTES-funded exams are available to active duty, Selected Reserve, and National Guard members. Veterans who have separated can use GI Bill benefits or pay the $97 exam fee out of pocket — still a fraction of a college course.
