COSC AA to TESC BA? Could it work? Here's my plan.

Here is the Poly Science degree plan: https://www.charteroak.edu/prospective/p...cience.cfm

I've no idea how many, if in fact any, of these can be completed at COSC. I can tell you that COSC courses are really expensive. What you could do is try to find courses that match the description of requireents and transfer them in. That's why I mentioned CSU-Pueblo and UofIdaho, either is about half or less the cost of a similar course taken at COSC. You could also consider completing a dual major which would open up more options for you. under a dual concentration you would likely complete 18 UL credits in Poly Science (3 of those credits being the COSC Capstone) and the other 12 UL credits in say history or Psychology or whatever floats your boat. The history option would mean at least 2 UL DSST exams could be used. Here is the Master list of Exams form COSC that details where exams will fit: https://www.charteroak.edu/exams/exams-master-list.pdf

A dual concentration should make the process cheaper and quicker...there just aren't that many UL poly sci courses out there. Note that a course doesn't have to specifically be a poly sci course to fit within a degree plan centered on poly sci...for example I suspect the CSU-P SOC 422 and 492 would nicely satisfy the International Relations and Methodology requirements, SOC 411 and 404 would make great electives and they offer a Poly Sci UL in their POLSC 305 "War and Peace" Sociology > Division of Extended Studies > Colorado State University-Pueblo those along with the Capstone would likely suffice for the primary concentration. With the DSST Civil War and Soviet Union you would be halfway through the second UL concentration in History and only need to find two more classes, I suspect that the Substance Abuse DSST could be used as a UL elective leaving you room for any upper level history class. This is essentially what I did in creating dual concentrations in Organizational Leadership and Health Care. I was also able to develop a consortium agreement with myself, CSU-P, and COSC to access my financial aid (PELL Grant) to pay for it.

I'm always happy to complete the free application waiver for those applying to WGU (I get a free gift from WGU for this).  Just PM me your first/last name and a valid email so I can complete their form.
