Question for Excelsior students...

I need 3.0 more credits for the humanities section; and this is what Excelsior states, "6.0 required semester hours must be earned in a humanities subject area other than composition such as: art, music, literature, philosophy, foreign languages, religion, ethics, theatre, or speech."

So my question is can I take the CLEP exam under the title of just "Humanities?"

or does it have to be one of the areas listed above?

Thanks, Lisa

what is clep and how do you do it?

I also needed only 3 credits for Humanities, so I took DSST (Dantes) Ethics in America. I looked at CLEP Humanities (which is 6 credits) and decided that it requires way too much work that I want to invest in this subject. Call EC, talk to them. Look at what is available. I believe you can search for classes/exams that fits your degree and then choose what to do.

Anyhow, I'd suggest to ask for approval from EC first.

Good Luck!
