Question about transferring credits to two schools

[brianb]

is it possible to transfer clep/dsst credits to two schools w/the intentions of getting a BS or BA at each school? in other words say i have 60 various clep/dsst credits, can i transfer them to school A and school B at the same time while school A would be a school i'd take a couple classes in a class room setting and the school B would be a school like Excelsior were i'd do it all online or take more clep/dsst? thx

As long as you are pursuing 2 different majors the schools should have no trouble accepting them, especially if they're being used to fulfill general requirements (English, Math, etc.)

Many schools have provisions for awarding a second bachelor's degree if you earn an additional 30 hours on top of your original degree, usually the major courses.

I will be a TESC student again (after a gap), but I checked with my local state university, and as long as I already hold a bachelor's degree, I get out of satisfying their specific general degree requirements, such as six hours of American History, specific written and speech requirements, etc., when working toward a second degree through them. With dual enrollment, I would end up having to satisfy both schools' gen ed requirements. I'm more about flexibility in choosing my courses.

Another suggestion I've heard regarding two bachelors' degrees is why not finish one and go on to do graduate work instead?

Good luck in choosing your path!
