"Big 3" Exam to Course Translation (Your Contribution Is Appreciated)
#1
I was thinking it would be great to compile exam to course translations for the "Big 3".

More specifically, how a CLEP/DANTES/ECE/TECEP/PF test would transfer to COSC, Excelsior, and TESC. How many credit hours it counts for, which course it would correlate with, and whether it is considered Lower Level or Upper Level.

This way we could look at how the exams break down into course structure. If someone has some helpful links, I will compile all information into the proper format for this forum.

I think this would be a fantastic reference for new and existing students alike. This would be especially useful for anyone thinking about utilizing more than one degree while using most of the same credits.

We could also reverse engineer this to show what exam options are available for each course.

I think that's a great idea. TESC's catalog (pdf download from website) has a list for the CLEP, DSST, and TCEPs. That should help!
