Just received an email from Excelsior stating that now through April 15, application to Excelsior College is free for those who complete our Getting to Know You questionnaire.
This is what it stated:
Itâs simple. Give us a few minutes of your time and weâll waive the $80 undergraduate or $100 graduate application fee - no matter which of our 120+ associate, bachelor's or master's degree programs youâre interested in.
Hereâs how it works:
1. Fill out our Getting to Know You Questionnaire.
2. Within 12 hours of completing the questionnaire, you will receive a free application confirmation email.
3. Use the link provided in your confirmation email to apply for free to Excelsior College. You will have until April 15, 2014 to use this link for a free application.
I tried to post the link in the email or copying it, but it isn't working. If someone could tell me how to do it, I will post it. I did the questionnaire and it just a few basic things.
Its just the application fee right? not the enrollment fee? Thanks for sharing
Don't forget that gaining college credit by taking exams is one of the reason's we're here. That's mainly possible through the flashcards made available by the owner of this forum : InstantCert Plus of course your hard work in learning and reviewing

Unless the credits are washed through FCC at $77 per credit hour. At that rate, it would be cheaper to just test out of the free electives.

Yes, that is an expensive option. And from what I read in another thread, it looks like TESC will not accept FCC washed credits from FEMA, either. I am curious about TESC's reasons for this abrupt change. The fact that the courses are not proctored could be one possibility, but I wonder if the change was financially motivated.
