Editing CUNY SPS IT Degree Plan (section)

=== How the course providers are selected ===
CLEP is free through Modern States and is the easiest by far of the exams to pass. However if you fail a CLEP, you have to wait 90 days to retake a test. DSST are not hard to pass either though cost around $100 and retakes are 90 days as well. Saylor exams are cheap at $5 exams but are extremely hard to pass though you get 3 tries to pass them.

Mostly CLEP options are listed in the degree plan unless a DSST was likely easier to pass. Saylor options are only listed if there is no other option.
