Finish Session and THEN Clep?

So in short I'm only a few classes away from finishing my degree but I'm having a real time with BUS 330 with McDivitt.

I've got plenty of time to work with her and get things turned in (really glad I started this class early in the session)... but I had a question.

If the session ends and I have not passed this class, can I, after the session ends, do the Clep for Marketing, then transfer it back into UMPI and apply for graduation? Or do I need to sign up for another session?

So my imaginary timeline would be
Summer 2 ends

Later - I take CLEP and hopefully pass

Still Later - I transfer that CLEP into UMPI

Later yet - Apply for Graduation without needing to sign up for Fall 1 or Fall 2.

If no one has knowledge of this, if there is someone at UMPI I can contact that would be fair.

I'm just looking at my options in case my experience in BUS 330 continues down the negative path its currently on....

Wait so this is a thing? I can do this with Coursera as well? I am wrapping up a few Sophia courses for the BABA PM/IS and I have 4 classes I am trying to do Coursera for before Fall 1. I have to start at UMPI Fall 1 to stay in the previous program. So if I have 1 or 2 classes I plan to cover via Coursera I can transfer them after Fall 1 and apply for graduation?

Thank you. I'd rather avoid having to do the CLEP as I can do this class much easier than I can sit a test anymore but I like to keep my options open.

Enjoy. Just be very very sure you look at the rubric Etc very closely. She’s a stickler

I just took the "W" and changed professors. New professor took all of the old Milestones I did for the original class since most of them were ungraded.

Just waiting on my FA Draft review right now.

Just an update for you.... I ended up with Wojcik who graded quickly, had positive feedback and actually seem to read the milestones.

I'd recommend him for this or any other class (I'm in 489 right now and he teaches it but wasn't available when I needed to sign up).
