I'm reading up on the Pierpont BOG AAS now. It has a 12 RA requirement. What do most people do for the RA's? Is there a default that most pursue?

Continued thanks to you all!

People have been getting by with 1 RA credit. Some are completing a 1 credit course through ASU's Learner program. Here are some options:

I would choose your bachelor's degree first, and then plan it out. You are almost guaranteed to cover all the bases for the Pierpont AAS. So you need to decide if you want to get that first, or do the courses you want for the bachelor's and grab the AAS when you get to the point that it's all done, whichever is more motivating to you.

Just an FYI, EC does not accept the CLEP for Composition; and UMPI does not accept the CLEP w/Essay as anything more than English Comp I (so you'd need to do English Comp II there). TESU will take the CLEP for both Comp I & II. But I would not let this one thing make my decision for me.

You really should go ahead and post your IT certs and Peace Officer cert before deciding anything.
