Hi,

Yes, look around at your smaller local colleges. A lot of them have come up with accelerated programs and they are most generous in how many CLEPS/DSSTS they will accept.

I started in June 2011 and now I am half-way (58 credits) through a B.S. in Organizational Leadership. I have taken 9 classes (27 credits) and the rest are CLEPS or DSSTs. The college also has an option for converting life experience or work training into college credit but I have not chosen to do that.

Just make sure your college is fully accredited so that if you want to go on to a masters you won't have any problems in the future.

Pointworthy
Total Hours tested out of: 30
Analyzing Literature CLEP - 78
Business Ethics DSST - 449
English Comp Mod CLEP - 64
Financial Accounting DSST - 69
Information Systems CLEP - 66
Intro to Business DSST - 445
Intro to Business Law CLEP - 73
Intro to Sociology CLEP - 58
Macroeconomics CLEP - 55
