This will allow you to get a Bachelors of General Studies, Concentration in Applied Studies (90 credits).
For the USA, you can have your credentials evaluated and they will take up to 60 credits towards a 120 credit program. Once the evaluations are done, you can then take the remaining courses online - I can recommend cheap/easy/fast courses. This would be the better option as it's cheaper/easier/faster!
Another option is to go with Competency Based degree providers in the USA. There are several Nationally or Regionally accredited schools in the USA that will accept Canadian credentials. I usually recommend Regionally accredited ones, unless it's in a major that's not available at an RA institution, then I would recommend the Nationally Accredited Institution.
I definitely don't have time to take another year of school full time and then transfer to Athabasca. Athabasca is also incredibly expensive and time consuming.
For TESU, it doesn't say they only take up to 60 credits, are you sure about that?
- If you studied at a regionally accredited community college, you may transfer and apply up to 80 credits.
International students with college-level learning assessed from another country must complete at least 30 additional U.S. college credits and meet all the area of study or concentration degree requirements to obtain a Thomas Edison State University bachelor’s degree
