ITS FOUNDING PRINCIPLE IS THAT ACCESS TO AFFORDABLE EDUCATION IS FUNDAMENTAL TO ANY PHILOSOPHY THAT RESPECTS ALL INDIVIDUALS, AND FUNDAMENTAL TO THE AMERICAN DREAM. MODERN STATES INITIAL PROGRAM, FRESHMAN YEAR FOR FREE, IS INTENDED TO LET STUDENTS COMPLETE ONE YEAR OF COLLEGE WITHOUT EXPENSE, SAVING 25 PERCENT OF THE TOTAL COST OF TUITION. MODERN STATES OVERSAW DEVELOPMENT OF 32 ONLINE CLEP (COLLEGE LEVEL EXAMINATION PROGRAM) COURSES, ALL TAUGHT BY COLLEGE PROFESSORS FROM OUTSTANDING UNIVERSITIES. THE CURRICULUM FOR THESE COURSES WAS DEVELOPED BY THE PROFESSORS IN CONSULTATION WITH IBL, AN EDUCATION, MEDIA, AND TECHNOLOGY FIRM. THE COURSES ARE DESIGNED TO PROVIDE A THOROUGH UNDERSTANDING OF COLLEGE-LEVEL FRESHMAN COURSES AND GEARED TO HELP STUDENTS OF ALL AGES PASS CLEP EXAMS. THE COURSES WILL PREPARE STUDENTS FOR THE MAJOR "ADVANCED PLACEMENT" (AP)* OR "COLLEGE LEVEL EXAMINATION PROGRAM" (CLEP)* TESTS OFFERED BY THE COLLEGE BOARD. HISTORY, COMPUTER SCIENCE, MATH, ENGLISH, AND ECONOMICS ARE AMONG THE SUBJECTS BEING OFFERED. ACCORDING TO THE COLLEGE BOARD, MORE THAN 2,000 COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES OFFER CREDIT TO STUDENTS WHO PASS AP AND CLEP TESTS. STUDENTS MAY EARN A FEW CREDITS OR ENOUGH TO ACHIEVE SOPHOMORE STANDING, MAKING MODERN STATES AN ON-RAMP TO COLLEGE. TO SUPPORT STUDENTS, MODERN STATES HOPES TO PROVIDE ACCESS TO TUTORING AND MENTORING. MODERN STATES IS NOT IN OPPOSITION TO ANY TRADITIONAL COLLEGE AND RECOGNIZES THAT A FOUR-YEAR RESIDENTIAL EXPERIENCE AT AN ESTABLISHED UNIVERSITY IS THE PREFERRED ALTERNATIVE. HOWEVER, SUCH AN OPPORTUNITY IS OUT OF REACH FOR MANY, GIVEN THE HIGH COST OF TUITION AND OTHER FACTORS. ENROLLMENT IN MODERN STATES COURSES WILL BE "MASSIVELY OPEN" TO ALL PEOPLE WITHOUT REGARD TO AGE, LOCATION, FAMILY INCOME, OR OTHER FACTORS, AND WILL PROVIDE A CRTICIAL "ROAD BACK" FOR STUDENTS WHO HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO MEET THE TRADITIONAL PATH OF THE U.S. COLLEGE SYSTEM. THIS INITIATIVE IS MADE POSSIBLE THROUGH A GIFT FROM THE FAMILY OF STEVEN KLINSKY, FOUNDER OF MODERN STATES, AS WELL AS GIFTS FROM OTHER FOUNDATIONS. *ADVANCED PLACEMENT, AP AND CLEP ARE REGISTERED TRADEMARKS OF THE COLLEGE BOARD, WHICH WAS NOT INVOLVED IN THE PRODUCTION OF, AND DOES NOT ENDORSE, THESE OFFERINGS. During 2023, the Foundation provided reimbursement for the CLEP Fee Program to 43,268 students.
