Academic Credit for Defense Language Proficiency Test (DLPT)
t is possible to receive academic credit based on test scores earned on the DLPT. The American Council on
Education (ACE) provides academic credit recommendations based on test scores earned on the Defense
Language Proficiency Test (DLPT). Credits are reported on a DLPT Score Report.
Credit recommendations are only available for languages tested with a DLPT III, DLPT IV or DLPT 5 format after 1
October 1990. Linguists who desire academic credit based on their DLPT scores may request DLIFLC to send an
official copy of their DLPT Score Report to a university or college of their choice.
