(or for that matter, even as a real associates?)

It's a real associate's. I guess you can put it under business. When I put the poll together, I was mostly thinking about the test friendly degrees that people usually flock to at the Big 3.

I don't really sell the undergrad degree, but I think business would be appropriate too as the concentration was Organizational Leadership which included rather a lot of business courses.. Since finishing that one I've finished the MBA so undergrad is to a point a moot subject.

I was hoping that COSC students would treat their concentrations as majors. I was also hoping that COSC and TESC students would use official concentrations/majors; that's why I put up Individualized Studies and LDAS as options. I wanted to see how many people designed their own degrees.

I'm always happy to complete the free application waiver for those applying to WGU (I get a free gift from WGU for this).  Just PM me your first/last name and a valid email so I can complete their form.

Who are all of these people choosing "other?" Where are your posts? How do I type out an "angry face" emoticon?

But, you made a post about the degrees you've earned. I want to see if there is a trend, but there probably is none. So far, we have nursing and French.

My actual degrees are:

Associate of General Studies

Currently I am enrolled at TESC under the BA LDAS, but I included it as a vote since I'm only 15 credits away from completing the degree requirements.

I'm a 19 year old, Software Engineer, who is enrolled at TESC for a B.A. in Computer Science. My bachelors coursework is completed and I am waiting for graduation to roll around. Will start pursuing ALM in Information Technology with a concentration in Software Engineering from Harvard Extension School sometime in the coming year.
