Which School to Choose for a Dual Baccalaureate Degree, COSC or TESC?

[bricabrac]

You are obviously using enrolled options tuition plan. Might I make a suggestion building on KayV's advice?

Instead of the dual degree, why not a second bachelor's? The BSBA General Management degree would be easily doable within your one year timeframe. While completing the capstone for the social science degree and awaiting your conferral date, begin knocking out the 15 highlighted Gen Ed credits required for the BSBA.

Once degree is conferred, complete the NEW 24CR in BSBA Core/Area of Study (Award of Degree). This will allow you to earn two bachelor's degrees within the same enrollment year for very little additional costs. The Straighterline (search promo codes) and Aleks ($20/mo) courses are cheap. I've listed a few Penn Foster courses (~$250@), but there are cheaper options (SL, DSST, TECEP).

Note: you could begin the SL of PF course(s) in the Core/AOS prior to conferral date but be sure the completion date falls after. Example if conferral date is Sep 5,you could begin the course(s) Aug 21 and take the final(s) on Sep 14. The date on the ACE transcript would be Sep 14 so the course would be NEW. This is what I did to take advantage of down time between conferral and start of new degree program.
