Have any of you taken both of these exams? Would I get credit for both at Excelsior? Or would they be considered duplicates, and I would get credit for just one or the other?

Thanks!

I was told by my EC advisor that these would be duplicate credit. ECE has a Lifespan Developmental Psych and that would also be a duplicate of these. If you need the credit I think I heard the human growth and developement was easier, but I believe the DSST Lifespan will give you a letter grade, unless they just dropped that to pass/fail. That way if you wanted the grade you would have to take the ECE - more money for EC! I hope this helps.

Hi!

DANTES Lifespan Developmental Psychology is still on the list to receive grades at EC.

54=A, 49=B, 46=C

The exam for credit guide has been updated to reflect the 10 DANTES tests that are only pass/fail now.
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*
Resources Used - 20+ Exams Passed & General GRE
Practice Tests - Available for CLEP and DSST
