degree mapping, Help!!

[whodroptthekiwi]

I am planning to get a BA in Humanities through TESC and I have already taken two years at a Bible College. I was wondering if I could get help with some sort of plan of action as far as finishing my degree the cheapest and fastest way. I was wondering if anyone knew how the classes that I have already taken would fit into that because I have a lot of Bible classes. The classes that I have taken already are:

Academic seminar (how to study in college)
English Grammar and Comp
US History I
US History II
Applied Piano
Life of Paul
Personal Evangelism
Doctrine II
Child Development
General Psychology
Health Maintenance I
Health Maintenance II
Bible History I
Bible History II
Life of Christ
Hermeneutics
Biblical Foundation of Global Outreach
Physical Science
Intro to Islam
Ecclesiology
World Area Studies
Intro to Folk Religions
Cultural Anthropology
Personal Development of Women

*I am planning on taking a computer DANTES exam soon as well.

If anyone has pursued the same degree and has a some sort map to completion or any advice, it would be incredibly helpful!!

Have you applied to TESC and sent in your transcripts for eval? That is your first step. I hope those courses transfer in as humanities courses but you never know.

No I have not but I was thinking they would at least transfer into general credits???

A few thoughts...

Most likely your religion courses will roll into humanities but for the degree you cannot have more than 18 credits in any one area (ie religion) so you would most definitely need more of other types of humanities courses for your area specific courses. Unfortunately no one can say for sure until you have an official evaluation, but you can at least work on your math/science tests while the college evaluates your credit, and they are SLOW, so the sooner you apply the better!

Another option is the religious studies concentration at charter oak. Religious Studies Concentration (Major) at Charter Oak State College. It may be worth it to apply to both schools; cost is $75 each. At COSC, you would be required to take the capstone and cornerstone classes but the cost is often comparable to TESC in the long run.

Keep reading the forum, searching out questions and looking through the college catalogs, and you will find a wealth of information. Good luck!

Yes they will probably fall into humanities and spill over into general electives. You won't know until you send in your transcripts though.
