I like your way of thinking!
Thank you!(02-05-2018, 07:35 PM)dfrecore Wrote: The other thing to consider - ask TESU if the Psych courses have to be UL. If they don't, you could use the LL Study.com courses, and fulfill the 18cr of UL with different Study.com courses, and you wouldn't have to test out of them.
dfrecore- I will add that to the list of questions I have for TESU. I appreciate you thinking outside of the box for me. And thanks for the degree plans. I downloaded the first one-- and I was like "sweet! Guess all that purple is what I completed"-- then my bubble popped.
Took me a minute to decipher what I was looking at. I suppose the next thing I need to do is sign up with Study.com and see if it's something I can work with. And THEN I can figure out which direction I can go, as it may open another door for credits. I'm all for saving money, but right now I'm needing to figure out my path, so I can sleep better at night! LOL So, I'm going to pay for Study.com, to just hurry up and get started. The question is-- which course/courses should I start with? Any recommendations? TIA!

I decided to be patient and not sign up to pay for Study.com $200 membership and instead apply for the Study.com scholarship. I'm nervous but excited. Fingers crossed! If I get it, looks like I'll have to take finance again!? LOL

You have to take Personal Finance, which is totally different from a regular finance course. It is pretty easy for anyone who's bought a house or car or had any kind of investments, but can be challenging for someone right out of school.
