Accommodations
CLEP Testing
If you have a learning or physical disability that would prevent you from taking a CLEP exam under standard conditions, you may request accommodations at your preferred test center. Contact your preferred test center well in advance of the test date to make the necessary arrangements and to find out its deadline for submission of documentation for approval of accommodations. Accommodations that can be arranged directly with test centers include:
- Zoom Text (screen magnification)
- Modifiable screen colors
- Use of a reader, an amanuensis, or a sign language interpreter
- Extended time
- Untimed rest breaks
If the above accommodations do not meet your needs, contact CLEP Services for information about other nonstandard options at clep@info.collegeboard.org or at 800-257-9558 before you register through My Account.
If you are an NECC student requesting accommodations, contact the Center for Accessibility Resources & Services at centerforaccess@necc.mass.edu. If you are approved for accommodations, documentation from the Center for Accessibility Resources & Services (CARS) office will be provided to the Testing Center and the candidate will be contacted to register and schedule the CLEP test.
DSST Testing
Test centers and Prometric will provide reasonable testing accommodations set forth under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) to allow test takers with documented disabilities to participate in taking DSST exams. If you have a disability and require special arrangements, please call 1-800-967-1139.
