Been a member a lonnnng time, but kinda just got busy having a few kids and just dealing with having an ok paying job. Unfortunately, a month back i was fired from the job as they were eliminating positions.
I also do not have any degrees in the hopper . I figured it is now the time. I am in my early 30s and ready to start my path to a better career (gotta start sometime ). I've narrowed down to either COSC or TESU and am looking at the BSBA. Time and money are a factor, i figure i gotta start asap.
I would like to take advantage of FEMA, Kaplan, TEEX and any other free credits of course up front and apply those accordingly to the BSBA. What college takes more than the other on the freebies? From reading it looks like COSC takes FEMA, but it is worth it?
TESU sounds attractive with the university lingo, and doing courses via SL sound attractive after reading RANSOMSOULs thread because I can grab credits from one source and not be bouncing around everywhere...and stay at home. I am a spreadsheet man, I figure that would be the best way for me to get an idea what is in store for me.
After I receive the degree from either of the above, I would eventually like to apply to a local college for my masters in either CIS/MIS in Oregon. So factoring in a GPA requirement if needed would be good as well to the above spreadsheet. Can that be done after the degree? Is it needed at all? I am probably looking at Portland State University, Oregon State University or Oregon Institute of Technology.
Again the best/free/cheapest solution sounds like it would be the easiest on me and the family in our current position. Starting with Free credits as well to get back into the school groove.
Any help or assistance (spreadsheet) will help me immensly! Thank you!
