Can219, what many of us do is apply to TESC (or one of the other "Big 3,") and have our previous college credits evaluated. (This costs $75.) There's a neat tool on TESC's website that you can access once you've enrolled. You put in the major you're interested in, and it shows you how your credits fall within the frame of that degree. Then, you can take tests, courses, etc. to earn credit. If you have a question about a course, it helps to search this site to see if it has been asked and answered. (I'm usually snarky, but I'm not when I recommend searching first. You could come across postings that are much richer in discussion than one you begin.) As Muricles wrote, many of us earn all of the credits we can, then enroll and graduate from TESC without ever having taken a course with them or through them. Other posters know more than I, but two things you want to watch out for is if your course is ACE approved, and if it will fulfill the course requirement that you need. Good luck with your career change.
