Hi,

CLEP is not accepted for Eng101. I did Straighterline, and it was pretty good, but it took a while. It cost me $239, because I didn't complete it in the first month. If you need additional Humanities credits, I hear that the EC exam is good, because it is 6 credits. Not sure about UExcel.... GOOD LUCK!

I did both ECs 6 credit test and UEXCELs 3 credit test, I got a D on the EC mostly my fault, I did not know when I tested that it was graded by a real live person, I guess I should not have made comments about the idiot that chose the test material. I then took the UEXCEL test, studied for a week or so and got a B. Should have done UEXCEL the first time and I would have saved a few bucks, the UEXCEL test was under $100 including the writing tool.

Hi... Here it is: Online College Courses That Fit Into Your Degree Program | StraighterLine

But it sounds like the UExcel might be better, and faster... There was a LOT of paper writing in the Straighterline course.

Here is a list of all the UExcel exams. You need to find out from an advisor if you can take college writing (3cr) or need English Comp (6cr)
