Ok I really need some advice. I'm not yet enrolled at Excelsior so I don't have access to an advisor. Maybe you all can help!
When I was younger I attended a university and didn't really know what the heck I was doing. I didn't understand the whole drop or withdraw thing. There were a few classes that I just stopped showing up for. So, I ended up with a few F's and therefore my GPA sucks. I had 25 credits from those days and my GPA was a lowly 2.34
. I have another 3 credit "Literature of the American Environment" class that I got an "A" on and I just finished 2 more classes and got B's in both so that will help give me a little boost. I know that here in FL if you repeat a class that you failed, and do better the second time, then they will only use the higher grade when computing your GPA.
Does anyone know what happens when you transfer your credits to Excelsior in this type of situation? Will they count both attempts for the same class towards your GPA? Also, if you failed a course and then CLEP'ed out of it and, say, got the equivalent of an "A" on the CLEP, does that count too?
I'm guessing I may have to ask Excelsior directly but I don't know if they will answer me if I am not enrolled.....
