Associate's vs Bachelor's

All the courses I have listed as UL were put there by my advisor last I spoke to her. So if that's changed...I'll be more than a little upset 

I did have my Cornerstone waived previously. If I called them up and reinstated via a TECEP would my Cornerstone still be waived or would I then have to do it? I've been inactive for maybe 2 months (didn't notice until not that long ago, maybe 3 weeks or so, so I'm not 100% sure how long I've been inactive). Would I need to take new courses through Study to get that waiver back too? Trying to gather all my data and get my facts straight before calling them in case I need to instruct them on their own ways

I doubt that anyone has tested whether the cornerstone waiver survives having to reapply. I would tend to think it might, but you won't know until you try. It's much the same deal with the UL courses. If you had actually taken them and transferred them, I would have a higher degree of confidence, but I tend to think that your evaluation will still be there unchanged, except for updated catalog...and if you ask nicely, they might even leave you on your catalog. I would get signed up for a TECEP ASAP. I think that time is of the essence on this.

If you can get an associates degree at no additional or very minimal additional cost I say definitely go for it.

I have two associates degrees from my local community college, one in political science and one in psychology. these degrees first got me a 20% raise and then later on opened the door to a totally new and better job. I now have roughly 90 credits and hope to finish my bachelors degree in the next 15 months.

Associates degrees certainly arent as valuable as a bachelors, but they look good on a resume and really cement to employer's that you are a serious student who is pursuing education.
