Best Online/CBE Community College

[JohnnyHeck]

Thanks to all for some ideas. I had no idea that CCs within the same state could have very divergent requirements. Here in NC all the CCs use common course numbering and all the degree requirements are the same.

The CTC option could be the one if the girlfriend has a major that she would like that is offered at CTC. Only 16hrs (25%) in residence at CTC with rest CBE or SL.

The COSC option surprised me because I did not realize before the low cost enrollment structure. This remains a very valid option for a no major AA requiring only a 3hr online Cornerstone course with the rest being CBE or perhaps SL. What's really kind of surprise to me is the COSC AA option does not absoluitly require a completion of all the Gen=Ed req.s, but to me you'd be crazy if you didn't finish them at this level particularly as a General Studies AA. A number of Online senior schools, ASU and VCSU for two, will waive all thieir particular Gen-Ed req.s if your AA has at least 39-42+ Liberal Arts req.s I'll have to check that since the AA at COSC does not guarantee you have completed all Gen-Ed, but your transcript would surely show it that this suffices for this critical waiver.

The point about the absolutely rock bottom costs for Californira CC must be respected. I'll keep searching for one with the greatest quantity of online 8wk term courses, While most that I've seen so far will only take 30 CBE credits there is some variation here. Mount San Antonio states it as 24hrs in residence implying 36hr for CLEP and Dantes but nothing else. Most of the schools will take only the AP English Comp but not the CLEP.

I'll check out the New Mexico thing next. Thanks again to all to get me started.
