They are after more money, however, I am doing everything in my power to save all the money that I can. Once I sit for the national exam for R/T, I plan to go to TESC to get a Bachelors in Respiratory Therapy.
Just remember anything you take at Concorde is unlikely to transfer to TESC or most other schools.
For TESC just make sure it is regionally accredited and then they at least are worth something. Thomas Edison State College: Transfer credit earned at other colleges and universities to Thomas Edison State College
My completed "non-traditional" credits include 27 credits from CLEP, 30 credits from DSST, 6 credits from ALEKS, 19 credits from FEMA courses including PDS, 3 credits from NFA courses, 10 credits from ACE Workplace Training, 3 credits from a TESC TECEP exam, and 3 credits from a TESC PLA course.
