Modern States offers tuition-free online courses to prepare students for the College Board (CLEP) exams. If you pass the exam, you may get credits at your college in place of paying for the same class on campus. Open to all students across the U.S. See email sent here.

Just like your Scholar Advisor, TheDream.US designates a Mental Health Liaison (MHL) at your college to provide support and information to you in times of need. Find your MHL in the Scholar Partner College Directory here.
