I am finally financially able to start excelsior but now I don't know where to start. I pretty much have to take everything, all ged eds etc.. Should I start clepping out first or apply to excelsior first? I've read that you can take everything but the last few NC courses before applying but how do you know what to take?? What if I take some courses and then my application is not accepted? Can that happen?
Do I need to make any contact with excelsior until finish the gen ed requirements?
Thanks for any help!

I would also love any suggestions on which classes to clep first.

If you have not spent the $75 to apply to EC and receive an unofficial evaluation, do that first. You really need that unofficial evaluation to tell you exactly which classes you need. I wouldn't do any CLEP tests until you find out exactly what you need, and what EC will accept. I know there are some CLEPs they don't accept, but I don't know which those are.
Good luck!! :)
