Anyone notice these folks are not very responsive? At this time, with my completed courses, once I knock out my Eng 101/201 classes I might just apply for an AS with TESU instead or go to Pierpont.
EDIT: Of course once I posted the above I received a phone call back.
The end out acceptance email/mailers once a week. I

I started a thread yesterday. http://www.degreeforum.net/general-education-testing-discussion/28689-west-virginia-bog-aas-planning.html (I didn't think of posting here earlier.)
KayV, could you give me some input?

Yes, I recently talked with one of their counselors and they confirmed College Algebra or above must be taken.

I have two exams left with Study.com. If I took English 101 and 102 with them, would all my credits fit into this plan? Here is what I figured from a template (I think it was KayV"S). Would this be worthy investment or should I just concentrate on my BA?
Edit. The Classes marked in yellow I have not taken. My signature includes all the classes I have taken. Also meant Study English 2 not 1! Also does Pierpont accept the CLEP comp?

Pierpont only requires intermediate algebra, if that helps.

Can anyone explain the "credit hour posting" fee?
I read it here (highlighted in red):

It doesn't apply to anyone doing transfer courses to the college, you won't be subject to those fees.
However, for individuals missing courses and wanting to do a PLA for portfolio credit, it's $10/credit.
Example, I want a portfolio of 30 credits, that's gonna cost $300 and the evaluation fee of $300, total is $600.
If you transfer in 60 credits, you ain't got anything else needed, no need for the portfolio fee.

That's only if you decide to go for PLA. If you submit a portfolio and you're successful at proving your prior knowledge, they have a small $10/credit charge.
