Totally Overwhelmed
#11
Currently just registered with them...I guess I'm having trouble figuring out which CLEP(S) / DANTES exams will transfer over to my degree. I'm also going to take most if not all of the FEMA exams offered on their website in hopes that they transfer over some of those credits as Liberal Arts / Electives as well.

[SIZE="2"][COLOR="Navy"]First, if COSC is right for you, fine - but also consider Excelsior College too. In most cases, EC accepts all (non-duplicate) credits (C or better although I've read that some D's have been accepted) and apply them to your transcript.

Second, please DO NOT believe that FEMA credits will earn you a degree. They can help fill up some electives (applied professional credits) but not the major/minor courses that are needed. I recall that I used just 7 FEMA credits to pad my credit level at the very end.

In any event I wish you well![/COLOR][/SIZE]

Have you used the "search" function at the top? There are a couple of huge threads on FEMA.

Thank you for the information and apologize for not being more involved in the forum, in the past few months I was laid-off of work and that delayed my education due to funds and then had the toughest time trying to remember the forum as all the information was at my office computer.

Anyway, I'm back on the horse sort of speak and have registered a community college here locally to get me re-acquainted with school and studying; However, I plan on transferring to either COSC, TESC or EC in the next coming months more than likely for spring semester...Is there anyway to find out which one of the 3 schools accepts more credits ? I think you may have answered some of this and my next question regarding to FEMA, I was simply looking to take some courses to get me a couple of extra credits just in case and at the very least I would have a certificate which may be a bonus in a job resume... Do I have to attend classes at any of these schools or can I still attend at my local Community college and still get credit at EC, COSC and/or TESC ? Thanks again
