Online Associate in Math degree? - nomaduser - 01-16-2021
Hello,
I just found online Associate in STEM Math degree program from Liberty University:
https://www.liberty.edu/online/arts-and-sciences/associate/stem-math/
This is a perfect program that can be used along with a BS in computer science degree.
However, I'm a non-religious person and want to get a degree from a religiously neutral university.
Do you guys know any other online associate in math degree program?

TESU has one. You can get it "free" when you get a Bachelor's degree of any kind from them.

Open University (UK) has a Diploma of Higher Education in Mathematical Sciences program that can be finished in 2 years.

This is equivalent to a US Associate Degree... I may go with this option.
However, it's so expensive. You'll be charged over $8k after you successfully transfer 120 UK credits.

$8k is a lot of money! TESU would be cheaper. Assuming that you were ONLY going after the Associate's degree completely from scratch and NOT any Bachelor's degree:
$3192 residency waiver
$1600 TEL Learning classes
$0300 Sophia (probably less, but let's go high)
$0039 CSM Learn
$0470 Study.com (2 months + 1 extra exam: 5 exams total)
$0045 InstantCert American Government
$0298 Graduation fee
$1557 Cornerstone
---------------------------------
$7501 total
BUT, with a TESU Bachelor's degree, you'd only be paying for the 5 extra SDC exams + CSM learn = $509.

if you have a BS in computer science you do not need an associates in math
even WGU's CS program has 4 math courses
Calculus I
Discrete Mathematics I
Discrete Mathematics II
Applied Probability and Statistics
https://www.wgu.edu/online-it-degrees/computer-science.html
and most CS programs require more

I'm doing a UK CS program that has only two math courses.
I need another way to prove some math skills.

Associate pretty useless I think if you enroll in a separate program. I think it is better to look for a graduate certificate. It is cheaper and more respectable than the associate. Also, consider an undergraduate certificate, so you learn only the math only.
Ex:
About USD 7200

Wow! thanks for your info!
That's exactly what I've needed and I like Birkbeck's reputation.
And the price is not bad.
Other suggestions are still welcome.
