Help Needed - Big 3 Publications - Chebasaz - 03-10-2011
I'm working on something and could use some information from each of the Big 3. Since I've graduated from Excelsior, it seems I lost access to their publications page. *Harumph*
Specifically, I'm looking for a recent pub from each of the Big 3 that spells out:
1) Degree Plans offered (Business, Liberal Arts, General Studies, etc) and that contains a breakdown of credits needed for each of those degrees
2) Which CLEP, DSST, TECEP, IT Certs, etc count towards which type of credits. With Excelsior, this publication was called "A Student's Guide to Credit by Exam" or something like that.
These may be in the same publication or may be spread across multiple pubs. I'm not picky.
If you are actively enrolled in one of the Big 3 and would be willing to help me out, please shoot me a PM. I'll send you an Email that you can send it to. If you don't have one but would be willing to help me find it, that'll work just as well.
Thanks in advance!

I only know about TESC, but their old "publications" link now is an online version of their catalog. I don't think they still have the old pdf, but (and a big but) you might be able to call them and reques a print copy. I used to have one, don't know if they still make them.

EC recently redesigned their site, so the files have been moved/updated. You should have access to it all, even without an account.
"Downloadable Documents" (at the bottom of most EC pages) - Downloadable Documents - excelsior.edu
Most of what you are looking for should be in "Catalogs".
Also, they have lists of the requirements under "Programs" (at the top of the pages) - http://www.excelsior.edu/ecapps/degreeProgram/degreeTable.jsf?gw=1
Choose a major; then download the "Requirements" at the bottom of the next page.
I hope this helps!

Ah! You both rock!
Cook - That worked like a charm. For some reason I had completely overlooked the Student Services tab on tesc.edu. Found the publication link under that one. Eight (!?!) mouse-clicks later, I found what I needed.
NAP - Thanks for the heads up on the new location. Ever since Excelsior changed their site I've been using the site map and "Ctrl-F" to find what I needed. Before I was able to find it using the "Publication" search string but a few days ago it vanished. Should have ran a search for "Documents". That's just what I needed, thanks!
Just need COSC and I'm set. After being able to find both of the others online, I guess I'll go paw through their website a few more times.
Thanks guys!

I am always impressed by how committed you are to this concept and sharing it with others. I hope some day you will tell us about this new project.
