Hi All,
I have taken english comp modular and passed, but Troy university said they would not accept it. After taking it I checked with another university I attended previously and they will accept it. When I checked with the other university I found this test completed my requirements for a minor. Here is the main question. If I send my scores to the other university, get credit as well as my associates degree will Troy accept the credits once I resubmit my transcript?
Thanks,
llb022

It depends. You could ask the new school what their transfer policy is with credits from the other school, but honestly, each school can make their own credit acceptance policy. There isn't a blanket answer for all schools. It may depend on how the other school that will accept it will add it to your transcript. If it says credit by exam, or if they just give you credit for their equivalent course you should get credit if it is an RA school to RA school, however if they not the credit on your transcript as CLEP / DSST the new school will probably still not accept it. But hey, you will get your Associates degree and that is worth something. All you can do is call the other school and see how it will transcribed onto your transcript.
Good luck!

While I don't disagree with Marianne, but your question does have a specific answer.
First off- you can't launder credit. So, Troy says no to the test. The other university says yes. If you attend the other university and get the test on your transcript and then transfer back to Troy with a DEGREE, then your transfer is subject to the articulation agreement between Troy and your university. If you don't have a degree, you just want to make your CLEP appear on a transcript somewhere else and hope Troy takes it- that's a no. I'd bet my last dollar.
So- if written articulation between Troy and other uni, then follow that policy. If Troy takes whole degrees as "paid in full" for 2 years of gen eds, then you are fine.
If no written policy- you'll have to eat the cost on a wasted test or transfer out.
