10 years removed from school, 108 credits want to finish my business/finance degree
#37
I think you got it.

Its a matter of ease vs cost.

You know how cleps are arranged because you have taken them before. If you knock out the 6 UL, you will need 4 CLEP/DSST exams. This site, instacert and free-clep-prep have CLEP/DSST down to a science.

So your cost would be:

Enrollment fee(approx $3K),
CLEP/DSST exam fee (80-100 each, so about $400),
Any proctor fees(from 0 to 50 depending),
Applicaton fee ($75),
Graduation fee ($299),
transcripts (varies),
gas (2.75 p/g and rising),
study time (priceless).

If you do the Per Credit option:
Application Fee ($75),
TECEP exams ($888 total for 8 exams),
proctor fee*,
graduation fee,
transcripts,
gas,*
study time.

* They were transitioning to proctor u where you could do them at home, I'm not sure if every exam has switched over yet.

My estimate (of course depending on the acceptance of your FINRA) for you.

enroll/clep- about $4000 and 3-6 months.
per credit/TECEP- $about $1200 and 6-12 months.
CLEPS Passed: 10 DSST Passed: 11 TECEPS: 1

PrLoko-isms
Don't waste time by trying to save time. The only sure way to complete your degree is to knock out credits quickly and efficiently.

Don't let easiness bite you in the rear. Know your endgame (where you want to be) and plan backward from there. Your education is a means to an end.

Be honest professionally, socially and academically. There are people (especially little ones) who look up to you and they're going by your example.

Be proud. Whether you're an Engineer or Fast Food worker, there is honor and dignity in hard work.

Picking on people weaker than you only proves that you are a weak person.
