Assessment Colleges go back (1971-87) before UExcels exams.  Read some of the older Dr. Bears Guides on the Big 3 he loved them.  UExcels exams came later.  The Big 3 were all "Assessment Colleges."  100% credits were transferred in.  None of the Big 3 had courses or exams.  Generally, 100% of credits came from B&M colleges.  These students just paid an annual fee and transferred credits in.  The Big 3 helped make a legit RA degree for adults who fell through the cracks like military students who moved often before the internet.  [/size][/b][/size]

You mean that no one took CLEP back then? CLEP has been around since 1968. I think TESU (formerly TESC) started offering online courses in the 1980s. They probably didn't have a lot of students, though. Did the Big 3 ever offer correspondence courses? Those have been around forever. Penn Foster is over 100 years old.
