Starting Capstone Soon!

[Mint Berry Crunch]

Big thanks to this forum for helping me choose a college to finish my degree fast! I’m officially starting my capstone with Excelsior on May 5th!

I finished both the Information Literacy and Cornerstone courses with above 97. Information Literacy was a great intro to learning how to use all the resources Excelsior offers. Each week had one discussion post, two replies across different days, required readings, and a quiz. It’s set up as an 8-week course, but I was able to finish by week 7 since the final exam is open book and flexible.

The Cornerstone course was pretty easy as well. As long as you follow the rubric closely, you’ll be good. The setup is similar to Information Literacy but with a short assignment due each week. Each assignment helps you build your final paper, which is due in week 7.

This is quite exciting! I haven't seen many posts recently on those completing a degree through Excelsior. If you don't mind me asking, how many credits did you transfer in? How has your experience been thus far?
