Has Anyone Taken Lifespan Psychology Online?! Where?!


Any info would be greatly appreciated. I need to present a syllabus to my school for approval. They wouldn't accept any online bio classes so I hope I have better luck with the psychology. lol Thank you.

You can test out with the Lifespan Developmental Psych Excelsior College Exam or use the Growth and Development CLEP exam. Either one of those should easily fulfill that requirement. The CLEP is cheaper but it isn't call Lifespand Developmental Psychology.

I'm not sure I explained properly. I need to actually take the course not test out of it. I hope that makes more sense. TY.

When you test out you get 3 credits for it, same as if you actually went to class weekly for a semester or took it online. After you pass the exam Excelsior sends your transcript to your school and it is just like a transferred credit class. You do actually have to read the book to pass the exam but you can do it much quicker at your owm pace. Let me know if you need any other guidence on the subject. Good Luck!

Ladycrafter 14, you mean we don't have to take the actual class but take the test online? Because the university that I want to apply require for me to take Life Span Psychology. I am not so sure if that the same as Embryology I've take at California state university. Can you help me if this accurate? How can i take the exam online ?How do i sign up for this class that you just mention?
Please help me, the deadline for application is June 1.

This response is probably a year too late, but I thought I would post the info anyways. I took an online lifespan psychology course from ventura community college, PSY V05.
