Hello everyone.
I recently added the CLEP Humanities exam to my humanities requirement because you need "at least two subject areas." I originally had the American Lit CLEP and A&I Lit to meet this requirement. But since both are labeled (LIT) I couldn't use them to meet the "two subject requirement." So my updated plan looks like this:
- CLEP Analyzing & Interpreting Literature (6)
- CLEP Humanities (6)
This will give me my 12 credits needed for this requirement. However, since I've already studied for the American Literature CLEP (test date is on 8/4), I will use this to meet the "Area of Study" portion of the degree.
I understand that TESC will allow you take two (2) 100 level courses towards the area of study (with the rest being UL credits at 200 and above.)
My question is, if I take the American Literature CLEP which is a 6 credit exam, will TESC count this as one (1) CLEP or will they count this as 2 separate courses at 3 credits each (LIT-111&112). I'm asking because if TESC accepts this exam as one (1) six credit course then that frees me up to take another CLEP like Western Civilization I to add to my area of study. If not then the American Literature CLEP will meet the two (2) 100 level course maximum.
I appreciate your help on this matter.
Peace be with you all.
