Hi Deb,

I am a civilian and have taken two Dantes tests, one at a local college and one at the local AF Base. It's easier to take it at a local college because of the hassle of getting on base; however the local base was cheaper because you only had to pay for the cost of the test. At the college I had to pay an additional fee to the college because I wasn't a student there. You can look on the Dantes web site and they list the colleges in your area that provide the tests.
