Possible misrepresentation of the new COSC policy
#2

When I asked about the new policy of requiring students to take 30 regionally accredited credits (24 to be exact, since the other 6 cr. come from them), he said that it was a misrepresentation. That's not what the policy states. This policy only applies to non-regionally accredited alternative course providers. Things like CLEP would still be accepted, as it is not an alternative course provider. Some of the people on this board have likely misunderstood the new policy. So, I just wanted to clarify things after the conversation. I should have asked about other things besides CLEP, since he only gave that example of a non-regionally accredited but fully accepted coursework/exams. Would DSST qualify as well? What about UExcel, or TECEP? However, I don't think that they would be treated as alt. course providers. This would make the pool of possible transfer-ready coursework/exams much wider.
TECEP is considered RA credit

Just for international student be aware.  To take TECEP by itself you still must provide TOEFL first.
