I created a customized version of this list for Excelsior College students and have attached it as an Excel spreadsheet.

What I did was find each Ohio University exam that was listed in the Excelsior course catalog and then verify each one on the Ohio U site. Upper level courses are highlighted in yellow.

Making the list was tricky because some exams are not actually listed on the Ohio U site, or are course-only, so I put those under a special heading. I also included a list of exams that Excelsior does not list, in case someone could use one of those and wants to petition Excelsior to accept it.

Do note that Ohio U uses the quarter system, so a 4 quarter unit course translates to 2.67 semester units. It would be nice if EC would round that off (based on my experience with the quarter system, it is likely to cover the same content as a semester) but their catalog lists 4 unit Ohio U courses at 2.67 semester hours. So, be aware of that before pursuing any exam.

What I like about the Ohio U exams are that they expand the number of upper level options for those of us who prefer to study alone and test out. There are more literature, history, and some business classes that are U/L.

I hope this helps! Oh, and yes, I am obsessive-compulsive. Why do you ask?
