The courses that I still need for my current degree plan BSPS in Technology Management:
ARTS AND SCIENCES COMPONENT TO INCLUDE: Needed
Written English 3.0 Comp 2
Humanities Requirement Needed
Natural Science/Math Requirement Needed
Total Arts and Sciences 3.0
Total Upper Level Arts and Science 6.0
Professional Core Needed
Leadership 3.0
Accounting 3.0
Project Management 3.0
Technology Management Core Needed
Technology and Society 3.0
Engineering Economics 3.0
Intro. to Energy Utilization 3.0
Integrated Technology Management Assessment 3.0
Total Professional Component 21.0
Total Upper Level Professional Component 15.0
ADDITIONAL CREDIT COMPONENT (45 CREDITS) TO INCLUDE: Needed
Any Collegiate-level Study 4.0
Total Additional Credit Component 4.0
Total Upper Level Additional Credit Component 4.0
I'm not sure if my any upper college level course credit would count my UL Arts and Sciences courses that I need to take or not. As best as I can tell, I need a second English class (3 CC), one LL science or arts class/test (3 CC), two UL science/arts classes (6 CC), possibly 4 UL CC of a random nature and the rest are core classes that are specific to the degree program. I could post a ton of unofficial college transcript stuff to include certifications here but I don't know how helpful that would be.
I was surprised at what they took and didn't take for certification credits. My CompTIA Project + certification did not knock out my project management class though the class that I took towards the degree was with WGU. My VMware certifications were not taken either nor was my 40 hour VCP 5 class or my CIW web foundations associate.
I guess the questions that I have at this point are:
1. Would TESC provide me with a better bang for the buck? If you had it to do over again Upton, would you have made the same switch and why was this a better fit/faster/better then Excelsior for you?
2. If I were to stay with Excelsior, are my remaining classes able to be tested out of?
3. Do TESC or CO require a focus for your major or is a general studies degree an option to later add additional degrees with a focus onto your accomplishments? I guess what I am asking is one of these schools more accepting of credits/certifications?
Thank you all again for reading and your help.
