My husband needed one class in World History to meet a teaching requirement. Anywhere, any class. So he took the CLEP and did fine. All on my sage advice. BUT ...he is not enrolled in a college so he is having a heck of a time getting a transcript to give to the school district. He did enrolled in Ft Hayes but three separate people there told him he had to actually take a class before he could get a transcript issued. Ft Hayes has his CLEP and he applied and was accepted. BUT he has no need or intention of taking a class with them. TESC said the same thing.
What are we missing????? He only needs to turn the CLEP into a transcript and the school district will not take just the CLEP...it has been turned into a transcript from anywhere.
Ideas????? Thanks !!!!!!!
Hold on. First, if you go through Ft Hayes or anywhere, you WILL NOT have an official transcript, it will be transfer credit. That's not what he needs because that won't be the official (source) issuer of the credit.
The ONLY place that can give you an official transcript is http://www.collegeboard.com It will cost $20 and they can send it to anyone. Stop wasting your time with colleges, you are adding a middle man.
