Just Getting Started

[LevelUP]

Aloha all!
     My husband and I are both looking at getting our bachelors with DANTES & CLEP amount other methods. He is looking at getting his degree in Liberal Arts because we have read that Liberal Arts is the absolute fastest method. We’re looking at the big three but we’re struggling to figure out which of the big three is the best. As well as a degree plan with which cleps/ Dantes to take. He’s active duty and would like to utilize cleps/Dantes as the first attempt is paid for by the military. However were more than willing to pay for study.com and other websites. 
Another question is do you apply for the college before or after you have accumulated the credits? 
As in do you take the cleps without being attached to the college and after you’re done taking them transfer them in or take the cleps while enrolled in the big three? We’re very interested but so confused! We would love any info you may have on how to get liberal arts ASAP! And what cleps to take. Thank you so much!

A Liberal Arts degree is not necessarily the fastest.  A business degree is fast too and a lot more useful.

If speed is a priority for you, then you be doing it wrong with CLEPS/Dantes.  Sophia would be at least 2x faster. 

The only thing I would take a CLEP for is English comp or something I could pass with zero studying which wouldn't be much.
