I've already applied for March graduation, but I just saw my evaluation after new transcripts have been added. So I'm regretting that I didn't think about this more sooner and add a ASNSM-CS concentration. I'm only 3 or 4 credits away!
I'm almost thinking of delaying my other degrees (BSBA-Finance, BSBA-Marketing, and ASNSM-Bio) for 3 months, if it means I can add this. Tough decision, because it would delay my MTS and my BA-CS / BA-English somewhat. But this would not be my only reason for delaying.
Can ASNSM-CS even be added anymore, since I already applied for graduation for the "3" degrees? Would I lose some or all of my graduation application fee if it was me that decided to postpone?
One reason I want the ASNSM-CS, even though I plan to graduate with BA-CS in March 2019, is it might help me get better paying work over the course of the year. Another reason is to act as a backup. I think that I might have life issues that slow me down later this year (or issues with 1 or 2 of the harder classes). If I know I'm going to miss the March 2019 deadline, it might cost me an extra residency waiver fee, which may then slow me down more. I would much rather have the ASNSM-CS than no CS degree.
One downside to getting the ASNSM-CS is maybe I'd be more likely to go slow on the BA-CS (or even quit it).
I would be "burning" 3-6 credits on this ASNSM. (Burning because those courses could not be used as "new" for the BA-CS.) However, I am planning to take extra LL credits for the BA-CS anyway, because I need them as background for other courses, and because LL credits are cheap.
Having written it out, I believe I do want to delay my graduation to add ASNSM-CS... if it's not going to cost $323 additional. But I would like advice on both options.
I think I only need 3 more credits? The ASNSM-CS eval shows 17 SH needed for the AOS, and I have 13. But one of those 17 is the TES-100 cornerstone. If they waive the cornerstone, they would replace it with a Gen Ed, right, doesn't have to be CS? It's strange it's under the AOS section.
