CLEP Transferring Question

[kmsou]

Thank you for your reply!

I'm still very new to understanding college procedures so I certainly will contact them as soon as possible regardless. I am transferring to a public 4-year school in South Carolina. I've gone in with the 4-year university's CLEP procedure in mind--it lists on the website exactly how many credits each CLEP awards, and their allowable CLEPs are very limited, but still I could easily get 53 credits over with that will transfer for exactly 53 credits. The community college has about the same credits awarded give or take one or two for a few.

I know when I go to take the CLEP, it says it will send the results to the university of my choosing, but obviously I haven't been accepted to the 4-year school yet. I would prefer to CLEP out of all I can up until I start the 2-year school this fall, then just finish up community college credits through the school and the maymester fast-forward classes until I could start the 4-year school in either the fall or spring.

However I need to work it, I'd prefer to just be able to only have to take the required 42 credit hours at the 4-year in my degree program, so I'd like to transfer/CLEP out of 73 - 78 credits however I may do that.
