300-400 level CLEP/DANTES? - ajperez1981 - 06-26-2009

Are there any UL (300-400) CLEP or DSST's that you can take? I go to Columbia College of Missouri (CCIS) and I want to be done earlier so that I can begin teaching in the 2010-2011 school year. Any help would be good... I have yet to take any exams. I am trying to work 40hrs, take 1-2 classes in an 8 week period, and take at least 1 exam a month... Any suggestions?

Here, let me find that for you.

Sorry, I love doing that. Big Grin

Short answer: there are no upper level CLEPs, but there are some upper level DANTES. Use the link I gave you to find them.

Welcome to the forum!

According to your school's website, they give upper level credit for 2 CLEP exams (that is unusual) - Principles of Management and Principles of Marketing.

Their DANTES list may be out of date because DANTES has "refreshed" some of their exams. According to this list, there are 12 DANTES exams that are given upper level credit.

Hope this helps and best wishes on your exams!

Wow that is unusual. I wish TESC gave UL Credit for CLEPs.

Welcome to the forum!

Columbia College gives credit as it is suggested by ACE.

It would be my suggestion to look into taking the FEMA credits, getting them transcribed to ACE or FCC and using them for elective credit as well. Also, Columbia College gives a 1:1 ratio for CEU:College credit.

Many people from this forum have finished the FEMA credits within just the matter of days for several credits.

Spend a little time searching the threads and reading about FEMA credits.

You can also use straighterline courses and get those transferred in to work, depending on your major whether or not they would be electives, but they may fit right into your degree.

BTW, what is your program of study there at CCIS?

Good Luck.
