Talk with lady from Phoenix U.

I talked with the lady from Phoenix University this morning as scheduled. She was not too happy about the developments going on, particularly the idea of CLEPing out the first two years-worth of materials. At first she said that CLEPing would be so hard that it would be almost impossible to get credits that way. Then she told me that it would be easy enough to take CLEP tests and take courses from PUO.

I am not sure I believe her. Something else she told me was that the Department of Education stipulates that you can only earn 30 credits from testing toward a degree. I have not been able to verify this. I challenged her on that and she challenged me to find out myself. So I will. ;)

Also, she doesn't believe that Calculus is required for any CS/IT degree. I told her that University of North Dakota requires it and she changed her tune a little.

She is going to call back Friday at 10:00AM. I hope it will not be too confrontational...
