marianne202,
Thanks for the follow-up. I actually sent my EC advisor team an email over the weekend and got a response today that seemed to contradict the aforementioned feedback, so I called them directly to get the scoop.
So the way it works is as such: For all CLEP/DSST & UExcel exams, the policy you mentioned is accurate. For ECE tests only, once you get a grade, you are stuck with it. I assumed that UExcel would work exactly like ECE (since they are an Excelsior product) but apparently UExcel is a cobranded product which operate similarly to CLEP/DSST or outside credit as it pertains to transcripting.
So for anyone thinking about squeezing in an extra ECE at the last minute (as I almost did), make sure you are prepared because as of now there is no safety net.
There is an possibility of changing your major as marianne suggested, and I am guessing that work-around will produce the desired effect though I did not ask about that specifically.
