Just starting - Help with CLEP please
#16
bllyshrs Wrote:Ok, I am just starting out myself, and I've seen a lot of advise such as the one above. I have two tests scheduled for Friday, and next week I have several others scheduled. My dilema is this: I am trying to complete as many "core" tests as possible before March 1. Why? Because March 1 is the start of the EC capstone course "Business Strategy" which is a must have from EC to earn a BSB. Unfortunately, they require most core classes completed before enrolling. I have seen others convince their advisor to let them in showing that they have taken quite a few courses/tests recently, but I am starting from scratch here and need to build up rather quickly. The next Business Strategy class starts in May and ends in August. I don't have that kind of time.

So my question is this. Though I am not officially enrolled yet (I applied two weeks ago and they are reviewing my old transcripts), I know that I will be enrolling very soon. Should I just ask CLEP to send my results to Excelsior anyway? Any harm in doing that?

btw.. I realize that I am cutting things awful close with the timing and all, but that's how I roll. Being that I have never taken a CLEP before, I don't want to do the wrong thing and have my scores stuck in limbo land while miss out on the timing of the capstone class. anyone with some advise: please help!

Since you need them to see your completed credits in order to sign-up for the course, I can't think of a reason not to send them the scores as you are taking the exams. (It took 10 days for mine to get there.) Anyone have a different thought?
