Strayer Challenge Exams

[jawbreakingrr]

I have been a Strayer student since 2010. I have three Electives left to finish my Bachelors of Science in Criminal Justice. It sounds like the information you received was correct, but maybe incomplete. The "Challenge Exams" are $20; no other hidden fees or anything, but you do have to be a student and the tests are based on Strayer's textbooks so you would want to purchase the most recent version of the text for said class. The one thing I'm concerned you may not have been told is that Strayer does have a residency requirement if you intend to obtain your degree from them, so you do actually have to take a minimum number of classes there. My question is whether or not the credits are transferrable if you've never actually taken a class with Strayer. It seems like there should be a way for Strayer to prevent people from enrolling in their school just to benefit from the discounted price of their Challenge Exam and then using those credits elsewhere, without ever really being a Strayer "student".

Why would you want that? Strayer is not going to discount your tuition or give you an attaboy for possibly closing a loophole. Everyone on this site is looking for the fastest, convenient, and Cheapest! way to complete their degree.
