Looks like all of your credits are LL.  Verify this, but COSC requires 30 UL credits and 15 must be in the major.  Becareful when picking courses to make sure those requirements are being met.

Fill in Capstone and  Cornstone as COSC courses.

Have you chosen a concentration?

What type of providers are you most interested in for credit?  Test center based providers (CLEP, DSST), CBT training remote testing providers (Study.com, Straighterline, Sophia, etc), cheapest, fastest?

Free credits - search this forum for TEEX and the Insurance Institutue.

Here's a TESU spreadsheet to show what you would need if you switched over:

Also, check out study.com's transfer listing.  It is not updated, and a bunch of courses got upgraded to UL recently, but COSC hasn't updated their transfer info, so that won't be correct.  But at least you know what they offer.

CLEP and Straighterline don't have any UL courses.

Davar has a bunch: http://www.davaracademy.com/

UExcel has a bunch.

Thanks for the COSC spreadsheet.

How do you determine which upper level courses apply? 

Also, does anyone know if you can get credit for training/courses from the Federal Virtual Training Environment (FedVTE)? I attached their catalog.

Your general education credits are a good place to start. You are going to need a total of 10 upper level courses, so it is good to take upper level courses whenever you can. For example, you can take these three DSST exams: Vietnam War (Global Understanding), Civil War & Reconstruction (U.S. History/Government), and Business Ethics & Society (Ethical Decision Making). These will take care of some of your general education requirements and are all upper level. The Business Ethics & Society DSST also counts as an upper level business requirement.

So my point is, if you are smart with your choices, you can be more efficient in getting this done.

You will be enrolled in the Cornerstone course when you officially enroll at COSC. My advice is to only take the Cornerstone and Capstone at COSC and transfer in all the other courses.

CLEP, DSST, Study.com, Straighterline, and Davar Academy some of the best sources. Use the master exam list that was previously posted for CLEP & DSST equivalencies. The others have course equivalencies listed on their websites. You will have to try some of these options and see which you prefer. To be on the safe side, get your exams/courses pre-approved by an advisor or registrar prior to taking them.
