Will CLEP English Composition Transfer to WGU for English Comp I & II?
#4
(10-21-2021, 03:32 PM)BitWiseGuy Wrote: True, they seem strangely cagey about that info. I suspect you're right too, that the CLEP exam will count for at least one English course. Though, I'd be surprised if there's a case-by-case evaluation as that could leave them open to allegations of discrimination; the same rules should apply to everyone.

Regardless, I was hoping someone might be able to post the results of an official - and hopefully recent - transcript evaluation since that seems like the best non-speculative answer available in lieu of any official info from WGU.

I recently started the English Comp I with Sophia, so I figure I'll at least have that class covered in the event the CLEP exam only counts for one of WGU's English classes (hoping it would count for Comp II in that case).

I did some quick searches for you.

"I took the College Composition CLEP myself and I'm really glad I did, I've heard there's tons of writing in both the Straighterline and WGU versions of the courses. It did indeed satisfy both English requirements for me at WGU."

"Comp II is essentially one paper. The first annotated bibliography task is what you would likely do to research for your paper anyway. You can copy/paste APA citations from the library. If you are a confident and motivated writer, you could be done in no more than a week. Honestly, the hardest part for me was deciding on a topic."

There is no guarantee the CLEP will transfer for both English Comps but odds are with you, that's for sure.  Worst case scenario, you do 1 English Comp course @ WGU which should be faster than slogging it out with Sophia or Study.com.

BTW, I recommend Peterson Master the CLEP 12th edition, a great quick guide that I used to pass the English Comp CLEP.
