To register for a CLEP examination, the first step is to register with College Board. The steps to complete CLEP registration are located on the CLEP website.
Once you have registered and paid for the CLEP exam at the CLEP website, you will need to make a testing appointment at one of our assessment centers. Electronic College Level Examination Program (CLEP) testing is available to anyone with access to NS Mayport. Examinees are not required to be FSCJ students.
Effective November 1, 2013, all candidates for CLEP or DSST testing at NAS Jacksonville or NS Mayport must make a reservation to test prior to arriving at the test sites. No walk-ins are allowed. This change was made necessary by changes to the CLEP software which restricts the number of available testing stations. Candidates may make a reservation by contacting the test administrator at nationaltestcenter@fscj.edu.
DANTES funds the CLEP exams for military personnel with “Armed Forces of the United States” ID cards. Two photo IDs are required of all personnel who test at NS Mayport. A military ID card is required to be presented at the time testing for personnel to take advantage of the DANTES funding for the test. Military personnel can only take any CLEP exam once for free. Military personnel desiring to retake a CLEP exam must pay the appropriate testing fees.
Unfunded personnel includes family members of military, Department of Defense (DoD) employees, and other civilians. For each test, those personnel will pay a separate, non-refundable $30 registration fee by credit or debit card. The $30 fee can be paid at the time of testing or to FSCJ staff at the NS Mayport office. There is also an $90 CLEP exam fee which is paid by credit or debit card to CLEP at the time of testing registration.
Additional FSCJ CLEP information is available at the College's Assessment and Certification webpage.
CLEP testing at NS Mayport is offered by appointment and can be scheduled on the Assessment and Certification page.
Group CLEP testing days/times can be arranged for command ESO's. A minimum of five persons must be available to test. Interested ESOs should contact nationaltestcenter@fscj.edu to arrange testing.
On the day of testing, all examinees are required to arrive 15 minutes before the start of the test.
Students indicate that the best way to prepare for CLEP exams is to study the CLEP or AP study guide for the subject area. Study as if you were preparing for a final comprehensive exam. The Navy College Office may have study resources available.
