I haven't looked in to other possible degree options, I suppose I could do some more digging! I'm not too terribly picky so since all 80 of my previous credits translated to the Liberal Arts BA I was more than happy to go this route. Do you have any suggestions as to BA options that might suit someone in my situation better?

Otherwise, you can complete the bulk of your remaining credits through the combo of Sophia.org for lower level and Study.com for upper level.This is very good news! When speaking with admissions they prompted me by saying I had to have 30 credit hours from TESU in order to graduate and be awarded a BA degree from their institution. My course map didn't show a "cornerstone" course however it did have the capstone. I would presume that the required SOS course is this cornerstone credit? Do you recommend Sophia.org and Study.com over the TECEPS @ 16 credits through TESU in terms of cost savings? Another drawback to pushing forward with the TECEPS is that I was told I can only schedule a certain number of courses per semester. Thus not allowing me to move at my own pace and finish the degree quicker. Do Sophia.org and Study.com allow for self paced learning? So as to finish as many courses as you are able in whatever time frame you see fit.
At this point in time, I would recommend you to take some time to review your credits and the WIKI page here, it has all the details in regards to the required general education and BALS or other degree programs that may interest you. Link: https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Sa...ts_Roadmap
