Getting the run around from local colleges

[dfrecore]

They're asking me to take a humanities/fine arts course. I think I have a choice of music, art history, ethics and theater. I've already taken art history and ethics but I'm not gonna argue with them about it. I'm still not sure what I should do. I'd to like to apply to some competitive colleges but I know they will want to see a years worth of courses since I've been out so long.

I don't think that "competitive colleges" or any other ones, want to see "a year's worth of of courses since you've been out so long." I've never really even heard of that before. That's not a requirement that you will see. Colleges get people who haven't been to school in a long time all the time. They won't be the least bit surprised to see you applying with older credits at all. Not even a little bit.

If you want to go to a specific college, I suggest you just go to their website and see what it takes to transfer there. None will require an AA, so that is not necessary to get if you don't really want it.
