Good catch dfrecore! So is it safe to assume that Excelsior College doesn't count their own UEXCEL exams towards that requirement? If the UEXCEL exams counted...I would have recommended to apply first since they give you 6 months to matriculate and begin knocking out as many transferable credits as you can before you enroll in the Multi-Source option. Courses are too expensive. But yes you will have to take the capstone course at Excelsior. Also I've been informed they no longer accept Penn Foster's Information Literacy course so maybe someone on the forum can give you some pointers on that one.
HEY LEON....you didn't state how many credits you already have but if you still need a crap load of general ed's via CLEP I've got AWESOME NEWS!!! Modernstates.org is giving free payment vouchers to students who complete their FREE ONLINE COURSES. Details in the link below. That will save you a ton of money right there. PLUS....they even reimburse you the testing center fee so the whole program is essentially FREE!!!
BTW....Excelsior doesn't accept the English Composition CLEPS at all so you'll have to use another avenue like SL/Study.com.
If you do have some credits though please post on here and I'll put a sample degree plan for you so that way we can crunch some numbers to see how much you'll be looking at to finish your BS in Liberal Studies.
Thanks again dfrecore for the feedback :-)
Til' next time....happy hunting.
P.S: I received an email from Whitney at modernstates.org and she did confirm that the program is still going for the foreseeable future so the free payment vouchers will be flowing.
