Excelsior Question
#1
I just finished Microbiology yesterday Excelsior. I am now finished all of my requirements with my ASN degree. I received an unofficial review for a BA in Liberal Arts from them. I need 21 ul credits in Arts & sciences. Can I use 3 nursing exams worth 8 ul credits? They are listed under Baccalaureate Nursing, or would I be able to use any ul DSST. Please help, it's 1:06 a.m. I am at work, and I cannot stop thinking about it. ( Lack of sleep, or too much caffeine)

Likely, the nursing exams are Applied Professional courses when brought into the BALS/BSLS.

Sorry
Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Wile E. Coyote, genius. I am not selling anything nor am I working my way through college, so let's get down to basics: you are a rabbit and I am going to eat you for supper. Now don't try to get away, I am more muscular, more cunning, faster and larger than you are, and I am a genius, while you could hardly pass the entrance examinations to kindergarten, so I'll give you the customary two minutes to say your prayers.

Bachelor of Science in PsychoRabbitology degree
Master of Education with a specialty in Rabbit-specific destructive munitions (or eLearning & Technology, I forget which)
Doctor of Philosophy in Wile E. Leadership with an area of specialty in Acme Mind Expansion - 2017 Hopefully

The nursing credits will be applied professional. Some DSST exams are rated as UL arts and sciences. I recommend that you look at their credit by exam publication which will show you the DSST exams that will be granted UL credit and which will fall under arts and sciences. Good luck!

The most inexpensive way I know of to get 21 UL Arts & Sciences credits for a BS in Liberal Studies is going to be (by enrolling after July 1, 2010):

All 4 DANTES exams in Arts & Sciences – 12 UL –
Civil War
Soviet Union
Money & Banking
Business Ethics & Society

1 ALEKS Stats – 3 UL

1 ECE in Arts & Sciences – 3 UL

1 Capstone course at EC – 3 UL

Congratulations on completing your ASN!
AS in 2010 and BS in 2013 at Excelsior College - Transcripts and Costs
MS Biostatistics in 2019 at Texas A&M University - Graduate School

Sharing Credit-by-Exam* and Help for Veterans

Practice Tests - Available for CLEP and DSST
