Double Majoring at TESC Confusion?

[cookderosa]

I already posted this in another thread and then thought this one might be more appropriate.
I can't figure out how to delete a post so, I am sorry!


here are the questions:



along the lines of a double major: TESC only lets you transfer 120 credits.

so if you needed say 150 for a double major. . .
are you still stuck only transferring 120? (i'd want to transfer 123 or 126)

no real biggie if not. just wondering.

and one more thing.
you can't have your "free electives" count for the second major (providing they would count anyway), can you?
you've got to have 150-ish credits for the double major, right?

This applies only to the BA and BSN, so I hope this doesn't confuse everyone else....

Do your BA right now. Do it fast. You can do liberal arts. Take all your gen eds for your BA in according to what is required of your BSN. What you want is a perfect overlay so that when you are done with your BA and file for graduaton, your new credits will be the nursing core for your second degree.
It will be FASTER than BSN first I promise. If you start picking crazy majors that can't be as easily tested out of, your time will be lengthened.

*I know TESC is starting a new BSN for BA holders option, I don't know enough about that to make any suggestions. The above plan was what I was planning on doing


I need to add one more thing, which I should have asked first. What is your plan for financial aid? Is your BSN being paid for by your employer or are you using FAFSA or both?
