Can CLEP Pass/Fail courses get graded later at Excelsior?

Hi everyone,

Another question for those of you at Excelsior....

Some CLEPs are currently letter-graded while others are only granted Pass/Fail status. From Excelsior's 2+ year old cut score sheet it's because they don't have the data yet to grant grades.

If you take an exam (such as CLEP Accounting) that gives you 6 credits and a Pass, is it possible that in the future Excelsior will essentially regrade it with a letter?

I'm asking Excelsior this question to get an "official" answer but wondered if anyone had any insight. Thanks...

Cheers,
Mark

 

For those of you who are curious, I received a response from Excelsior today not long after I asked the question.

Pass/Fail will remain Pass/Fail grades, even if they change the policy to assign letter grades.

However, at your request, you could change ALL P/F grades to letter grades (it's all or nothing).

There are currently no plans to change the business courses such as CLEP Accounting to a letter grade.
