Denied Acceptance for Master's Programs with Testing Out degree?

[DeanLewis]

I have a TESU Liberal Studies BA, and have used it as a basis for entry into an accelerated BSN-RN program that starts in January. I have also been accepted to three masters programs as I was exploring my options going forward. You wont have any problem in most programs.

Yes this is true. But if I recall from thread didn't you take your sciences from local Community college? If you are doing an accelerated nursing degree most schools will at least need the pre-reqs in the form of actual college courses instead of ACE of CLEP.

Basically take hard sciences are graded credits but all free electives, humanities, and anything else can be taken as CLEP, ACE or whatever and it shouldn't affect much. There is a post about someone else on this forum who got into medical school with a TESU degree. That being said, they did have to do post-bac course in the sciences required in the form of actual college courses not test outs.

You just need a way to get those sciences and your alt credit degree will be just as good as any.

A few, but in my experience, the lab components dictate that. The schools I applied to all accepted Straighter Line's A&P (I and II) and Microbiology WITH labs (and would accept the others offered too). I did my other requirements through CLEP (Lifespan Development), and Community College (Gen Bio, Nutrition, Chemistry etc).
