The degree you have chosen with Excelsior has several specific requirements, most of which you will not be able to test out of. This may seem like odd advice, but it may be worth your effort to apply to TESC and Charter Oak and see what they offer in the way of transfer credits. Just so that you are aware, Excelsior is far more flexible with their liberal studies degree.
If I had it to do over again, I would have avoided Excelsior and went with Thomas Edison. Excelsior's prices were pretty steep for courses and I wasn't impressed with the one I took. TESC is far more flexible in their acceptance of transfer credits but I am not sure about certificates since I have none. Out of my 184 credits, TESC transcribed 181. 59 of those were from CCAF. The applicability depends on the degree program. Charter Oak is pretty flexible as well, but they are not as generous with upper level credits for exams.
All three colleges offer general studies degrees of one type or another that allow an area of focus.
