Hello All!
I can't believe I stumbled onto this forum. You guys have got so much good advice! I hope to be just as helpful once I get familiar with this and move past being a newbie. I'd like to ask for your opinion on the degree plan I created to get an AS in Technology from Excelsior college. I attended college back in 1988-90 but due to a family illness, I was forced to give up on it and start working. My plan now is to get an AS first then get the BS. I've looked at the requirements for the AS and what I think the corresponding exams/courses I can take to satisfy them. Can you guys review it and give me feedback? Am I good?..going in the right direction?..or completely off?
Thanks in advance!
Excelsior requirements in black and my credits underneath in Red. (Anything with "City College" next to it are my transfer credits)
Arts and Science Component (30 credits)
