Pierpont BOG AAS no longer free

[vintage_jacket]

Looks like it's now $300 for an evaluation: https://www.pierpont.edu/cost-aid/cost/tuition/

Honestly, it's a fair price, but I'm bummed as my kid turns 20 in 2 days and I was going to have her get this.

Yesterday someone on a different group that I am in asked Ms Parks if the degree is still free and she said it is, but she did acknowledge that several of the gened course requirements are now 3 credits instead of 6.

Wait, so if I read this thread correctly, @dfrecore is going going to find out very soon if there's a $300 fee. I'll hopefully will be applying by end of year.

@christinadq @Tulips95 I read Nancy's communications on this thread, and I didn't specifically see anything regarding the cost or the possible cost increase.

Let me know if I missed something.

There is no $300 fee.  My husband applied this month and there was no fee.  He applied for graduation in December.  
She confirmed to him no fee.

She confirmed to Tulips95 above that there is no fee for a normal credit transfer.  That is for PLA.  My husband says she is incredibly kind and helpful.

Multiple sources, including other groups, have gotten the same response that Pierpont continues to be free as an AAS completion source for adult students with outside credits being accepted, including ACE.

@vintage_jacket, the mentioned fee is for PLA assessment. You might want to relax a bit on that, but even if they did apply a fee for the next year, it's still the cheapest AAS anywhere (unless you're getting one free on route to the Bachelors). Having said that, we don't know what the future holds, they may change in 2023 or later. It's best to get everything done quickly since they still allow this...

Oh, got it! PLA, prior learning assessment. Thank you!
