That is correct, there are only two required classes. The policy on their website states:
Charter Oak has two academic residency requirements. The first is a 3-credit cornerstone course required for students enrolled in either an associate or bachelor's degree program at the college. The cornerstone course is taken in the student's first term as an enrolled Charter Oak student. The second is a 3-credit capstone course required of all students completing a bachelor's degree.
Perhaps, only 100 of his credits are applicable towards the specific degree he is pursuing. Are any of his credits physical education or developmental? Do any of the courses duplicate? Are they all in one subject? Are they from a community college? There might be several variables involved in the response they gave you. It is best to call them, and ask for them to clarify the email.
