COSC BA structure?

Unlike TESU, you cannot take the capstone and cornerstone at the same time at COSC. And you're not even allowed to take them during the same term. It takes really good timing to be able to complete COSC in just one semester. It's theoretically possible, but most students are going to have to pay for at least 2 semesters.
In progress:
TESU - BA Computer Science; BSBA CIS; ASNSM Math & CS; ASBA

Completed:
Pierpont - AAS BOG
Sophia (so many), The Institutes (old), Study.com (5 courses)
ASU: Human Origins, Astronomy, Intro Health & Wellness, Western Civilization, Computer Appls & Info Technology, Intro Programming
Strayer: CIS175, CIS111, WRK100, MAT210

For COSC, generally speaking a BALS with your own options for concentration is cheapest, but once you want a true major, you're better off at TESU.
Is it COSC or TESU that won't take Coopersmith?

Is a BALS cheaper at COSC if one plans to continue with a Masters degree elsewhere later?

A BALS at COSC is cheaper whether you want to take a master's degree later or not (the cost of the degree doesn't have anything with what you plan to do afterwards).

For COSC, the cost for tuition & fees for 2 semesters and only taking the cornerstone & capstone (so bringing in 114cr) is $3,181.

For EC1, the cost for tuition & fees and only taking the cornerstone, info lit, and capstone (so bringing in 113cr) is $5300
For EC2, the cost for tuition & fees, taking the cornerstone, info lit, capstone, and 2 add'l courses (so bringing in 107cr) is $5850

For TESU, the cost for tuition & fees and only taking the cornerstone and capstone (so bringing in 114cr) is $6654.
So one semester at COSC is even better

It's only $370 for the extra term, so not a huge deal for most.

Ok so not so terrible after all.

If one is enrolled at TESU and wants to transfer to COSC, can they send all the transcripts directly from one to the other? Or the transcripts have to come from their original source (ACE, RA, CLEP, etc)

You always have to send transcripts from the original source.

Does COSC take CSM as a substitute for stats?

CSM is so much nicer, while I dropped sophia stats, too long, very little application of what one learns, I prefer doing the math.

Not only do they not, but if you are doing the Psych degree there, you specifically need Statistics in the Social Sciences.

Thanks, I didn't know they did not.

Is Statistics from straighterline better than sophia?

COSC seems very limited in the options of degrees both in the associate and bachelors level. 

I like TESU ASNSM in Computer Science and aiming for a BALS. 

Are Davar courses accepted at COSC?

Most people don't take 2 stats courses, so it's hard to compare the same course from 2 providers.

COSC is definitely a smaller school, with fewer majors/concentrations.

Here's the list of alternative course providers they have "approved": https://www.charteroak.edu/catalog/curre...r_inst.php

And the list of course providers that are specifically not approved: https://www.charteroak.edu/catalog/curre...arning.php

Davar is not on either list, and the "not-approved" list says they will take ACE and NCCRS credits.  I would say that they're not your best bet.

Thank you so much, this will help me figure out where I am at, if I decide to go with COSC.
