    From what I've researched it seems that most schools limit the credit to 30 (for a Bachelors). Also, CLEP (and AP) are more often accepted than the others. I found one school which only allows CLEP but doesn't limit it making the total number of credits accepted to around 45 or maybe a little more.

    Not many seem to accept ECE's...

    What I'm pretty much asking is" "What "traditional" colleges are most lenient with credit by examination?"

    I'm mainly asking because my BA from TESC is going to have somewhere between 30 and 48 exams on my transcript with no grade. (How many will depend on how many I passed and how the software they have shuffles my courses.) I'm not sure how that will look to an employer if they see a lot of CLEPS and gradeless credits. Hopefully they won't even notice or look that close. I therefore wonder how many CLEP/DANTES credits people have earned in traditional colleges.

    Hi Ljinpa,
    Mine was the traditional 30hrs of credit limit; Limestone College with a combination of campus, Dantes, and online. My transcript from Limestone, on the Dantes simply states: Transfer 30 hours
    Best, Gavin

    Indiana University SCS allow up to 90 credits from testing.
    Penn State allows up to 60 credits from testing.
    Regis University (no, not St. Regis) allow up to 60 credits.
    Liberty University allows up to 90 credits.
    Empire State College allows up to 90 credits.
    There are quite a few more who allow up to 90 and many more who allow up to 60. Also, some schools do treat the credit differently if it is part of an associate or (especially) a bachelor degree.

    I wouldn't worry too much about that, most employers merely want a copy of your degree as proof of graduation.

    take care, Abner
