CLEP/DSST Transcripts When Applying to Grad School
#1
When applying to grad schools, do people typically send CLEP and DSST transcripts or is the transfer credit for these on a TESC transcript sufficient?

Thanks

I only applied to one master's program. I sent them the DSST, CLEP, FEMA, and ACE transcripts, but they weren't needed. I think they even got kind of confused because they sent me a notification of which CLEP will be accepted for an undergraduate degree. I've applied to a few doctoral programs. None of them asked for those transcripts.

Thanks Sanantone. That will really cut down on the cost of transcripts.

If there are pre-reqs that were met by a secondary source it's likely, but I'd send your official degree transcript and let them ask for more if they need it. .

None of the graduate programs I applied to asked for CLEP or DSST transcripts. The credits were on the undergraduate transcripts. After all, CLEP doesn't grant the credit. The school putting it on the transcript grants the credit.

You generally only submit transcripts from accredited educational institutions you've attended... CLEP/DSST do not fall into that category so sending them in would probably only lead to confusion, if anything.
