Excelsior and ALEKS

[David Offenbaker]

Can anyone tell me which ALEKS courses will suffice for Excelsior's 2 credit hour requirement?

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

Why don't you do this... go to ALEKS home page, and right at the top, in the middle it says 'Begin Free Trial'. Sign up, it will give you 3 hours free, to show you how it works. Go to the Beginning Algebra, do the Assessment, and it will give you a score and a pie chart of areas you need to work on. My understanding is... that once you get 70% or better, you can apply for ACE credit, and have it sent to Excelsior. There is a link for ACE credit on the ALEKS page. Or, if you want to skip the free trial, under 'New User' is a link for 'Sign up Now'. I'm sure you will need to be a paying customer to get the credit. Once you have what you need, you can cancel.

I've only done the free trial, but chose the Basic Math. When I sign up for it, I will do the Beginning Algebra.

Good luck!!
