DANTES Subject Standardized Tests

Non-Traditional Credit Options

The following DANTES tests are recognized by John Brown University for credit toward the Degree Completion Program's elective and general education degree requirements for Organizational Management and Business Administration Online majors. Early Childhood Education (EDC) majors may not use these exams for credit.

Enrolled OM and BA students should receive the Associate Registrar's approval to apply credit from these tests to their own graduation requirements PRIOR to taking the test via a signed Approval to Transfer Form. Tests which duplicate or overlap previous college credit will not be approved.

The test study sheets are only available in .pdf formats.

Additional information about DANTES tests, including how to purchase practice tests, is available from the test publisher at www.getcollegecredit.com.
