    I was wondering, If anyone on this forum has taken Excelsior college "Bachelor of Information Technology" program in any concentration. I have few questions actually alot. okay

    1. I currently hold an US equivalent of "Associate of applied science in computer programming" which is like 64 credit.

    and

    32 lower level credit for undergrad.

    I had applied to Excelsior , charter oak and baker college.

    currently colleges are working on giving me a final word what else is required and how long it will take.

    I wanted to know what is the difficulty level of courses in above courses. Does it involve lot of project work. Although i did my college in Canada I undertand things can be sometime hectic and breeze depending upon the subject and assignments.

    Please give me an insight. I am also looking into info if anyone has ever transferd associate to bachelors how much they have awarded them. I am also thinkin of doing some CLEP exams.

    Thanks


    :cool:

    A lot of credits can be awarded for testing out in that program. (Excelsior)Between cleps, dsst and ICCP exams, you could gain a large majority of your credits. How long it takes is up to you. If your motivated enough, it won't take long at all. IT certifications are worth credits also.

    I am also waiting to hear from Excelsior. I don't have alot of credits from the community college. In fact, my credits are over 30 years old and none of it pertain to the Major that's I'm seeking. (BS in Information Technology). I do however, have Certifications in A+, Network+, Security+, Project+, MCSE and CCNA. I'm not sure how much credits I will get for these Certs. Are there anyone out there that have an ideal of what I'm about to get myself into. After reading several materials on people testing out, I'm hoping I may be able to test out as much as I can. Any suggestion?

    Some of my credits were 30 years old and accepted. All those certs you listed are worth credits. You can still test out of a lot of courses. Go for it, you will be suprised how much you already have done.
