Degree Plan Help - COSC vs TESU

[dfrecore]

The degree plans I see don't mention the COSC Project Management course, and I've gotten confused reading about TESU vs. COSC with the talk about capstones, cornerstones, etc. Plus, there's a CLEP/DSST center close by. I like online classes, and am not put off by studying for CLEPs, so I'm kinda stuck in analysis paralysis!

I think Iknow the answers to these, but can you guys help me figure out:
Which program is cheaper (TESU?)
Which one is faster to complete (Again, TESU?)
How my credits apply (to me, it looks like all 30 of my credits will apply towards general ed's, maybe not the Microecon since this is a business program)

Regarding which type of course/exam to take, you just get to figure that one out on your own. My advice would be to take an exam, see how you do, and then figure out if you want to do more. If you use SL, you can also take one of those, but I'd recommend taking several in a month to cut down on cost. For study.com, you would want to take 2 courses, since that's what you're paying for anyway. You can also look at Saylor, and take the final exams without actually taking the courses, if you want to spend the $25. Those are just a few of the options though.

A cornerstone is usually the first course you take at a college when you enroll, it may be a short 1cr course that you can finish quickly. COSC requires one, TESU will start after May 25. TESU's will cost $300, and that's all we know at this point. It will serve to get you a GPA at TESU, since that now seems to be the requirement (they obviously go hand-in-hand).

The capstone is usually the last course you take at a college before graduation. It's normally something to do with "pulling it all together." Both schools require one, although the BSBA at TESU can be tested out of (Strategic Management TECEP). At the current time, it looks like they are still accepting Strategic Management from other sources, as long as it's completed by July 1.
