Help me !!!!

I'm very aware, I would be taking CLEPs as well as courses.


Believe me, I've looked into this and the colleges around here don't. University of Washington, Seattle University, SPU and the CCs don't. From what I understand they used to but not anymore and the nearest schools that do offer some CLEP options are down in Portland, Oregon. Majority of West Coast schools no longer offer credit for CLEP tests - just not good enough for them I guess


Trust me I've checked on this as well, yes almost all colleges today offer distance learning but the online courses my CC offers aren't very well organized. And they aren't as flexible. Distance learning isn't the sole reason I would choose one of big three. If I wanted to continue here at my local CC I would just go to regular classes. I wanted to transfer so I could take loads of CLEPs and then finish the rest through courses.


I was just thinking the CLEPs would be a way to rack up major amounts of credit? But I don't know what exactly is realistic with how many credits I have (only about 16). That's good to know though



Well I've already checked into what's available, and ultimately my choice of one of the big three would be based on CLEPs, getting my degree faster, and not having to deal with CCs and traditional brick-and-mortar classes. But from what it sounds like it's not worth it unless I already have a lot more credits to transfer over first?

Thanks for the input!!

Did you not see Jennifer's second post? Half of the colleges you listed as "not accepting CLEP" do in fact accept them. It doesn't matter.


You are around 1/8th done with your college education at this point and have a long journey ahead. If you want to CLEP find a testing center and start studying. Take all of the CLEPs you think you can, rack up about 80 to 90 credits and then enroll wherever you want, send in your transcripts, and finish what you need to for a degree of your choosing.
