Excelsior prelim review for BS in National Security, Intelligence and Security A. - Awonser - 06-22-2016
[attachment=1165]I just received my Prelim Eval. for the BS in National Security, Intelligence and Security Analysis.
Can someone look at it and tell me out of the 82 credits? that I have left if there is really anything that I can CLEP out of or alternative methods Saylor, Straighterline etc?
I'm new to this alternative credit thing but with four kids I really want to try and CLEP out of a few things before I move on to taking actual classes at Excelsior? and I would love to save some $$$
Thoughts?

Blackout your personal info. That's the first and most important step.

I had to change it to word doc so might be even more confusing now but my info is good now.

Yeah, so after reading those two files (even with the changes), you still have to ask yourself which school you are wanting to go.
Even if you have the courses planned for all Big three or 4 schools (including WGU), if you're not deciding on the school, it's a waste of time.
My suggestion right now is to do the following: Create a spreadsheet with all the requirements needed for each degree and school.
You have to find out which one of those degrees is more for you (cost, credit transfer, ease of testing, requirements, etc)
Individuals who contribute mostly to TESU degree planning because they're easier to find for acceptable transfer courses.
Generally, it maybe as simple for WGU as well... The same can not be said for COSC or Excelsior, especially for UL ones.
