Foreign Language Prior Learning Assessment PLA portfolio

[cookderosa]

I haven't started working on a portfolio but I thought I could get some info on the process first. However, unless you are an enrolled student it's hard to get information at either school. Which brings me back here trying to get information. Then I will decide what works best for me.


Excelsior doesn't offer a foreign language degree but they do offer literature as well as cultural studies. I mentioned them because I see on their website that they work with Learning Counts, which sounds inexpensive and simple. But again, I can't get any specific information because I'm not enrolled.

Does anyone out there have experience with PLA portfolios at either or the Big 3 or Ashford?

Do you have a set of credits / specific PLA in mind? So, with your new info, I'm assuming you already have all your lower level Spanish? If not, I'd absolutely do that first, and I'd use the NY exam (16 cr) and then put it on Learning Counts to try and see if they can do anything above and beyond those 16. TESC's degree in Humanities might be the most efficient use of a large number of language credits. Cheapest? I don't know. I will caution you against spending any $ or making a plan until you have these questions answered. This is a bit of an uncharted path here, you should consider creating a WIKI degree plan to share if you end up making all this come together.
