Hello All,

Ellie from AHUM recently shared some information about a resource for students preparing for CLEP exams. Modern States is a non-profit dedicated to college access and affordability. They have partnered with edX to develop free, online courses (includes lectures, quizzes, tests, textbooks, etc.) that assist students with preparing for many of the CLEP exams.

During their early trials, 70% of learners passed the CLEP exams (meets the national average). Modern States is also offering a voucher to pay for the already affordable CLEP fee (for the first 10,000 test takers that complete one of their courses). More info can be found at the links below and on the attached flyer. The Testing Services website also has a link (“Freshman Year for Free”) to the Modern States website on their CLEP page (see below).

Thank you for sharing this information Ellie!
