CLEP/DSST transfer equivalence to Excelsior Bachelor requirements?

Thank you for all the suggestions! How are your experiences with Sophia? I haven't used that learning platform before. Does each course take a long time to go through, and is it difficult to pass?

For the most part, Sophia courses are going to be relatively easy to pass. There are a few that are more difficult (Principles of Finance and Intro to Ethics are harder ones for many people but not for the same reasons) but many of the classes can be completed relatively quickly. There are some suggestions on the wiki to optimize your Sophia experience: https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Sophia.org If you're taking the courses ONLY for Excelsior, not everything will apply to you but it should give you a good idea of what to expect.

Thanks! I've been using study.com and am wondering if I should try some courses at Sophia. After reviewing the course list and trying to assume equivalency with the info I found, it turns out TESU might work better for me than Excelsior. I'll probably go in the TESU direction and see if I should apply to both when I'm almost ready to. It's so tricky to rush on the transfer credits just because I know if I'm too slow on the transfer credits when I'm enrolled I'll likely become inactive or have to re-apply. That would seem like a nightmare lol. It's so tough to take things one step at a time as I really wanna get this Bachelor's degree and move onto a program of my interests!
