They were pass/fail when I enrolled in 2006 as well.

you need to check your facts a little better. the 400 series DSST have never been given grade status by Excelsior, check out page 28 of their published catalog for 2014. Excelsior College | Credit-by-Exam Catalog
A college has the right to set grade levels regardless of what College board or Ace recommends and do so regularly. ASU my other college sets a pass as 54 instead of the ACE recommended. If they gave you a grade for your DSST 400 exams they would be giving you special treatment and in violation of college policy. If you get special treatment I want it too!
This is why you want to check a colleges policy before you enroll . The issue is that you now either have to take 12 credits with them to waive your 1300 dollar enrollment fee or as you said walk away. It will not because of a violation on Excelsiors part since their catalog clearly states that 400 series are pass fail. They were also pass / fail when I enrolled in 2013 and when I checked in 2011
