Advice needed fastest path to a degree
#1
Hello,

I want to first say this is an amazing forum and I've been reading posts here every night for about a week straight. I never knew about the Big 3 or the possibility to get Ace credit, etc until I found this forum.

I'm in a situation where I could benefit from having any sort of AA / AS / BA or BS degree, regardless of subject.

I've been admitted to TESU and 2 of my 4 transcripts have arrived there. I will look forward to getting my evaluation whenever the remainder of my transcripts arrive and they get to it.

My question for the folks here that are experienced is what do you think the fastest degree will be for me to complete? Is Tesu the best for my situation, or would one of the other maybe be a better fit? (I did noticed TESU charges $2000 residency requirement if you don't complete 16 credits there now) I do quality for a $1500 Pell Grant for 2016-2017 school year that I will lose if I don't actually enroll full time somwhere by Jan 1st as well.
Also, If you could be so kind to point out any gaps and recommend what I could do to start closing those such as Ace or Clep, etc. I did sign up with Aleks to try and get some quick math credits via ACE although I don't know if they will be useful. it's a great refresher nonetheless.

Here is what I have completed so far - all are regionally accredited and traditional semester hour credits.
Total Credits: 99 (I did take intro Psychology twice so 3 credits are duplicate)
