COSC Concentration Question - BigPoppa - 02-27-2015

Per COSC:

Note: Only grades of C of higher may be included in the concentration.


Does a "pass" of a CLEP or DSST equal a grade of C for this purpose?

Yes a pass will qualify, and you will have a grade of "P."


COSC Concentration Question - ArtGurl - 03-02-2015

I got an "A" grade for the DSST exam (Technical Writing) at COSC. Apparently they only do this for DSST, CLEPs are a different story.

Quote: Q: Will Charter Oak State College provide a grade for passing my exam?

A: Because DSST exams are standardized, normed exams, Charter Oak State College will issue a grade for passing those exams. CLEP exams are not scored in the same manner and therefore no grade other than "P" (pass) can be issued for CLEP exams. Standardized Exam / Testing FAQs - Charter Oak State College

Yes! Nearly 75% of my concentration was earned from "Pass/Fail" courses with no letter grade. This included 1 DSST exam, and 22 business credits from Western Governors University (which only awards Pass/Fail for its courses).

I got grades for some of these as well. Now, since all of the DSST exams are the new scale, I don't think they give real grades for them.
