Excelsior Information Literacy substitution?

[dfwdegree]

Why are people wanting to use a substitute for Information Literacy? Excelsior requires you to take 7 of the 120 credits at Excelsior and the Information LIteracy is a 1 credit course. Are people expecting to take more than two other Excelsior courses?

Since Excelsior will take the study.com course to fulfill the info lit requirement, it saves time and money($100 vs $530).  It also makes it possible to only take the 3 hour capstone at Excelsior, everything else can be taken from outside sources.  Starting 11/1, that will all change.
