To College or Not To College

[AutumnCrown]

Yes, don't go for NA when you're so close.

Your cost of tests might be only $50 depending on what you need. Especially if you're willing to do CLEP

COSC doesn't have a graduation fee?

Oop, looks like you're right. The COSC graduation fee is $215. The student services fee is 275 per semester (minimum of two) and the technology fee is $68. That raises the estimate by about $430.

And I think you're right about the NA. It's not THAT much more for TESU.

If you are going to spend thousands of dollars, make sure you get the sure thing.  Regional accreditation is the gold standard and that is what you should go for.  I also recommend TESU because it is so flexible in terms of credit transfer.  If something comes up, you'll have options.

I think you guys are right. And I'm already registered at TESU and have had my credits evaluated. Plus, they have the degree program that I like the best.   

Next steps:

- Figure out which courses will fill the requirements for my degree
- Find the cheapest source of said classes
- Take all courses except two from Study.com
- Take Capstone
- Graduate

Does that sound about right?

I would pick COSC over UP.  $1000 is nothing in the course of your life.

I have in the past been required to have an RA degree (US Gov.).

Oh, see that would suck to have an NA degree and still get denied.
