Are my number right? ( Cost Comparison)
#1
Hey folks! Just checking my numbers in terms of cost comparison between/with 2 degrees.

cheersmate For those who may not know, my original intention was to complete my Associates in Business at Excelsior College, then transfer over to TESU and complete my Bachelors degree in Business: General management. Long story short, for one reason or another I've been off and on trying to complete my Associates degree *traditionally* for almost 15 years. I wanted it for emotional reasons, not logical.

Anyway, the further I progress in my mission to become degreed, the more and more I realize that I don't really care about getting an Associate's anymore. I'm still on the "fence" about it, but I reached a tipping point yesterday. Please take a look at my numbers to see if they make sense in regards to the Fees for both schools. Am I leaving out anything? :confused: (Fees for the first two columns are already counted in the cost statements)

Courses are not named, just credits counted. Course prices are based on Degree Plans kindly done for me by dfrecore (Thank you!!!)


*ECC Fee: This is the amount I have to pay my old college to release my transcripts.

** I know I could have made this post shorter, but I literally threw this together to see for myself, and to have a visual record. Smile
