Sorry, allow me to rephrase this. You mentioned being military before, and at least as of a year ago it was possible to get the UEXCEL paid for as long as you had it put in your degree plan.

Ahha! I was not aware of this as an option. Interesting... I will have to explore, because that is a GREAT solution.
I presume I would be using Tuition Assistance (TA) to pay for that?
Thank you for your post

Hi all,
Does anyone know if these will duplicate or fulfill the WER?
UEXCEL ENGX-110 College writing + Straighterline English Comp I
If they do duplicate, could you swap in SL Eng Comp II instead of I?
Essentially I don't want to take the expensive Eng Comp Uexcel, especially since it doesn't have a practice exam.
Thanks

This will duplicate. Definitely take SL Eng Comp II in order to meet WER. I just finished SL Eng II in about a week. Note: ACE recommendations for the current version expire on 10/30/15. However, SL did verify it would be renewed

That's great to hear. Did you get TA to cover this?
