just starting bsba at TESU - register or not by 7/1/2016?

Honestly, I think it's too expensive to do the AA/AS at TESU now. With the $2000 residency requirement, it just kind of puts it over the top. If I were you, I would look at the COSC AA instead. I don't know how much it costs, but I do know that you don't have to do the cornerstone, so that certainly helps.

I don't know as much about COSC. Since I already have 60 credits from testing... would all those same apply. I acquired them looking at the TESU requirements, not the COSC. Would the COSC be the same for liberal arts associates? Or would I send up needing to take other classes? Even though it's expensive, I didn't think it would make sense to change tracks now, but maybe I'm wrong.

I didn't realize that I could just call them. I called today and they said the cut off was May 25th for avoiding the cornerstone course. So it's now too late. I thought others may want to know. Thanks!

Bummer for those trying to avoid this, but not too surprising. The language on the site seemed pretty clear about 5/25. It'll be a very easy course at least, but the $300 is a bummer.

If I were you, I would start a new thread with your classes/exams you've already taken, and ask how much it will cost to get your AA at COSC at this point. I'm not good at figuring that school out, so can't help much - but I know others on here are very good at that.

Since COSC charges a $75 app fee PLUS a $150 non-refundable deposit to evaluate your credits now, it's worth asking for help here. But I really do think you might be better off at COSC for the AA now.
