Any suggestions for easy two general ed credits? I've passed all my CPA exams and applied for licensure, only to have them tell me I'm two general education credits short. I've got two Bachelor's degress - BAAH!!!
It's been so many years since I've been around this scene that I'm not aware of all the latest and greatest credits ya'll are pulling out of the woodwork. My state board will accept CLEP and other pass by examination credits as long as they show up on an accredited school's transcript. I currently have a transcript with TESC and Columbia College.

I would do 2 Saylor exams. Intro to Comparative Politics is supposed to be easy.

Since your school accepts CLEPs, you could study for them with

They will send you a voucher so that the test is free.

Excellent! Thank you both for the suggestions. Can I transfer the Saylor credits to TESC, even though I am no longer a student with them?

I don't think so. Once you have your degree, I don't think you can just continue to add credits for no reason. You might have to apply, and then take a TECEP exam to get some credits. You could take a really easy one.

I agree that a TECEP would be your best bet. If you take something outside, and try to transfer it in, you'd have have to apply to TESU for an associate's or pay the credit banking fee. Since you only need one TECEP, I'd go ahead and take it as a non-matriculated student. It costs more, but it's cheaper than the application fee + regular TECEP fee.
To others who need to add credits after graduation, one trick to stay enrolled after graduation is to declare for an associate's before you graduate. It leaves you an enrolled, degree seeking student for up to a year after graduation.

So if I take a TECEP as a non-matriculated student, do the credits automatically post to my TESU (I keep forgetting it's a university now) transcript? I like that option... What's the easiest TECEP?
