I need one last credit for Excelsior College to gradaute and it needs to be an Art and Sciences class. I was wondering if any FEMA courses are considered art and sciences. I did look over what I have to do in order for Excelsior to accept these credits. Just was wondering which course I could take.
Unless if anybody else knows where I can get a quick college credit
Thanks a bunch

It may give you 2 extra credits, but it is not that expensive and there must be one you can pass quickly?

I was thinking about CLEP but the testing centers are more than 90 miles for me so was just thinking a FEMA course would be easier. If you do know any that would be considered and Art and Science class or know of anything online I would appreciate it.
Thank You

I know at TESC that all FEMA's go in free electives unless your degree is in that area. Where are you that it is so far to a clep testing center. Granted I am in NJ, but there must be at least 20 within 90 miles.

My two cents...........take the drive, what the heck ............no need to hurry back because you are on vacation....... get a hotel near by for the night before or after.

Yes there is one FEMA that is an A&S at EC, Effective Communication (fema) counts as a Humanities credit at Excelsior when on a Fredrick cc transcript.
IS-242 (FEM 134): Effective Communication

My vote: DSST Environment and Humanity (Science)
IWB cards are good to go, + forum suggestions, and remember we know much because of what has been in the news for years.
Good luck!
