I took my last DSST on Nov. 22nd and it took almost a month for the results to reach Excelsior. Then another month or so for them to review my transcripts but this is it! They are conferring my BS on Feb.15th.

Thank you all so very, very much. I know I could not have accomplished over three years of college credit in a year and a half without the tools and support here at IC.

I'm attempting a career change and am applying to several Masters programs. We'll see what happens. Good luck to all of you who are still in the process. You CAN do it!
