EC - The BA/BS Difference
#12
lkm370 Wrote:Can someone explain in laymans terms how the in depth requirement of the BS in LIberal Arts degree works. Ive read about it in my excelsior guide book and on their website but I still don't fully get it. For example, can I do a in depth in history then take 4 history DSST/CLEP exams?

Yes, a depth is 12 credits, including at least 3 upper-level credits, in a specific subject. It can be history or math, but it needs to be more specific than social science, like psychology, sociology, etc.

Here is a link to give you some extra ideas, but some of the info may be out-of-date:
