DSST Score Report Panic - Slg122170 - 06-20-2011

Hi All,

I am pleased to report I have completed my last 14 required program credits using CLEP and DSST Testing. Unfortunately, I only discovered IC within the last couple of months.

My panic: Yes, I procrastinated and came down to the wire with completing these requirements too close to being subject to new program requirements.

My question: Within the last several months, is there anyone who has paid for expedited DSST scores and not received them within one week?? I know they say 7-10 business days and that they only post on Tuesdays and Thursdays but I am hoping (ok praying) they post sooner. I took one test on Friday and one today and have requested/paid for expedited processing with the hope that they are received by my institution no later than next Monday.

I found that normally those were sent out in batch on Tuesdays from Prometric. I had one that was lost in the mail and when I informed them, they told me they mail on Tuesdays.

Not sure this helps. If you are in dire straits call your advisor and let them know they are coming.

Thanks bkahuna. I so hope my reports make tomorrow....My advisor was alerted immediately and is anxiously awaiting the reports.

By the way, great accomplishment there for you! 91 credits in 90 days. I SO wish I had followed up on CLEP/DSST earlier in my program. I have nieces entering college in the fall and have already started telling them about CLEP/DSST.

WOW :eek: 91 credits in 90 days!!! That is amazing!!!!! I tell everyone I know who is trying to finish school about CLEP/DSST and IC. It's surprising how many people aren't interested. I hope your nieces will follow in your footsteps. It's such a time and money saver.

Good luck and I hope your scores post in time.

Thanks for the kind words!

Yes unbelievable how people want to actually give the university money.

I put together a degree/testing plan for a friend of mine whose daughter is going out of state to Arizona State. $60k in savings!! They take up to 60 credits by exam!

I told him I'd like my new BMW in black with leather please, being that I just saved him 60k Smile
