Need credits ASAP
#1
I am 22 sem. credits away from my BAL @ Excelsior. I have 2 required activities to go, the INL-102 and Capstone, which brings my required credit total down to 18 sem. credits. I need 18 upper level, Arts & Sciences, semester credits, ASAP. I have already mapped out the various ECE tests, but am wondering if anybody knows about any 6 credit each, pass/fail, upper/level opportunities out there that I could partake of instead? Thank you!!!

Some of the DSST exams are UL, http://www.degreeforum.net/excelsior-tho...units.html. TESC recently lowered the cost of their in house testing service to about $100 each, I suspect those are accepted by EC also.Thomas Edison State College/ All TECEP&reg Tests

I'm always happy to complete the free application waiver for those applying to WGU (I get a free gift from WGU for this).  Just PM me your first/last name and a valid email so I can complete their form.

No, I don't of any UL - 6 credit pass/fail tests or courses. However, Excelsior accepts 12 three credit DSSTs for UL credit: Dantes Exams - Free Study Guides at Free-Clep-Prep.com

My recommendations would be:

1. Heres To Your Health
2. Substance Abuse
3. Rise and Fall of the Soviet Union
4. Criminal Justice
5. Ethics in America
6. Business Ethics & Society

Only 3 of the DSST tests are accepted by Excelsior as U/L Arts & Sciences credits. Civil War & Reconstruction, Money & Banking, and Rise & Fall of the Soviet Union. I have completed the 2 history related ones.

In footnote #4 it says that Principles of Finance in the Applied Professional section is U/L in the Liberal Arts programs. Thank you!

You're welcome.

I interpret that to mean that it is lower-level for the Business school, but upper-level for the Liberal Arts school. It still appears to be Applied Professional, not Arts & Science like you need. If you learn differently, please let us know.
