Default +3 history credits!

Excelsior just give me credit for CLEP History I - 3 LL credits. I had taken the test at a local university, but for some reason it didn't show on an official DANTES transcript. After talking to Excelsior they just transfered the credit from the other college. Its doesn't count for GPA ( I got an "A"), but its counts toward my depth requirement which means all I have to do is pass USSR for my history depth.

Another 3 credits, I'll take it! I just need to knock out the UL's

Hi Straydog,

The good news is...US History I and II are only counted as pass/fail at Excelsior now anyway. So your US History I credits wouldn't have counted towards your GPA even if you had applied them directly from your DANTES transcript.

Nothing lost!

Best of luck on USSR,
Snazzlefrag

Barry - You too! By the way, you stationed at Bragg? I spent three years there. Now at Ft. Hood for three weeks with the army guard.
