CLEP and ACE - Digital Jacob - 07-28-2020
Hey there,
I dunno if the question was already asked but does anyone here know if there is a max. n. of CLEP or ACE sourced credits? To get accepted by Exelsior toward associates?

No matter what degree you're getting, you have to take 7 credits through Excelsior. The remaining 53 or 113 credits can come from anywhere (so long as they apply to your degree, etc.). With the low cost of alternate credits, this makes an associate's and a bachelor's degree cost roughly the same at Excelsior.

Excelsior doesn't have a max acceptance on CLEP or ACE. You still have their 7 credits of courses that can only be taken through them. They're the same for bachelor's degrees as well except the cornerstone and capstone are upper level. If you're considering going on with them you may want to ask to take the upper level version.

Not roughly the same, exactly the same. And a capstone either way. No thanks on the associates there...
