So far, I looked at Kairos, but I can't find much information about them and don't know how legit they are. I would REALLY prefer CBE if possible because I really like to get through classes quickly (I have the time). I also looked at LU, but they won't take me because I currently live in NY, and their licensing programs aren't available here. 

My END goal is to become a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, so if there's a better path, I'm all for it. My thought was to get the LPC and do therapy while I go on to ABSN and then a practitioner program.

Thanks!!!

Has anyone looked into the program? I know that degree info had one post about it. You can transfer in up to 90 credits or 75% of the degree. It's $2400 per 4 month term and is completed on a phone app. I've decided to approach the program and will document my progress if I truly enroll after my transfer credit is evaluated. Unfortunately they do not take transfer credit from study.com. I am unsure about other alternative credit providers.

Hey everyone,
I’m currently working full-time and looking to finish my bachelor’s degree as efficiently as possible. I only have a GED at the moment, so I’m starting from the ground up.
My goal is to complete a BA as quickly and affordably as I can, possibly through online or competency-based programs and jump to a Master Degree
If anyone has advice on which schools are flexible with transfer credits, self-paced options, or ways to accelerate the process, I’d really appreciate your input.
Thanks in advance!

Hi all, I am interested in the Bachelor of Music at Tesu. I have a Bachelors in Sociology and Masters in Social Work. So this would be a second degree, and not career related. It's for my own personal interest so there is no rush on completing anything. Is there a path to completing it with the required Music credits. It looks like some do have to be transferred in. And is there any difference to this being a second degree. Also I still have residency in Pennsylvania so it would be considered in state for any tuition purposes. Thank you.

Ex-SUNY college professor accused of accepting bribes for higher grades

So very sad. I wonder - How much money did this guy take in selling his good name?

This is my degree plan for Computer Science, with equivalences from Sophia, Study and Coursera. I didn't include many General Education courses, since sophia already has a webpage showing which ones will transfer (https://uopeople.sophia.org/). 

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1...ue&sd=true

After I started the degree, they included another course, Intro to Computer Science. 

Basically, you can transfer almost all the courses (within the 90 credit limit), except Online Education Strategies and Comparative Programming Languages from outside sources (sophia, study and coursera). 

I hope this helps

My son is looking at getting a bachelor's in psychology thru either Crestpoint for $8000 along with his high school degree or for 16k thru excelsior. My question: is there a disadvantage to getting a degree thru Crestpoint that is not regionally accredited as opposed to excelsior that is regionally accredited but twice as expensive? He wants to go on and get a masters in therapy and counseling. Will most graduate schools accept that degree?

Though I no longer participate on the other channel, I do check on the "Recent Posts" from time to time. As I've mentioned before, I am delighted to see Dustin is enjoying the Great Books of the Western World by his own method. He posted that he is currently reading the Iliad.I think that's awesome! I am enjoying reading and discussing the Great Books with my cohort in the Basic Program. To me the discussions add value to the time invested in the readings. While reading Homer, In addition to my cohort discussions, I really enjoyed Erica's commentary on Homer. I think she's fun and  provocative  https://youtu.be/3_CuVdOzr4Y?si=xC9hR0PFRTJrdNWV

I recommend her channel to Dustin and anyone else interested in Homer and Greek Mythology.
