Hello all, I'm new to this whole CLEPS and distance learning thing.
I'm a 22 year old american, whose never been to college, so this is all a bit confusing.
My goal is to get a Bachelors in ideally, a degree that requires the least bit of math. I don't really care as all I want is a degree so I can qualify for a work visa in Japan.
However, I'm a bit confused, do I do the CLEPS and then enroll in one of the big 3? Or do I enroll in a school and then take CLEPS?
Also, my biggest worry is funding this, is there anyway to get student loans to fund this? So far I could take private loans but that would require me to pay back right away which might be difficult...
