University of Oregon Fast Graduation - Eruditus - 01-08-2016
I'm currently a sophomore at the University of Oregon, and I've used IC to pass a macroeconomics CLEP exam. Very soon, I plan to take additional CLEP exams for both microeconomics and sociology. I've also been looking at chemistry, but there doesn't seem to be any resources on IC.
I'm trying to graduate as quickly as possible; ideally some time within the next two years. Are there any other resources that any of you have used to speed up your graduation track besides CLEP? The offerings at the U of O for CLEP tests are pretty limited with 11 total tests, 3 of which are on the subjects of foreign languages. U of O does not recognize DANTES.
- Do you know of any resources to help prepare for CLEP chemistry besides Khan Academy and Crash Course Chemistry?
- Are there any further options to accelerate my graduation rate? I'm already taking 21 credits, so I can't schedule any additional classes and maintain a high GPA.

What about ACE recommended credits?
I sent my ACE transcript to the local community college 2 summers ago before enrolling at COSC. I initially couldn't get a straight answer on how they would treat ACE credits but I sent it anyways. They didn't recognize ALEKS or TEEX because they didn't have proctored exams but they did give me credit for the SL courses I took.
No telling how U of O will treat it, but you could ask...or just try like I did.

University of Oregon is regressive NOT progressive in education on CLEP, DSST, ECE, etc. Very few military Veterans attend. It's all about $$$ with Knight University.
