TESU BALS and Questions

[TexasTink]

I've been reading the threads on here and it seems like there's some change brewing at TESU.  I'm looking for advice on the best course of action.  Would it be better to sit back and watch for a little until more info comes or should I go ahead and apply/register now?  (And if I apply, it seems like it would be beneficial to get all my credits pre-approved?)  I don't have a lot of credits yet - only 38 - so that's why I'm hesitating. I also don't want to be "stuck" with TESU if they change a lot of things and it causes problems in the future (like getting rid of course providers/not accepting courses).  I'd prefer getting a degree from TESU since they currently seem most flexible and that's what I've been working towards.  Excelsior would be okay as well, though the UL credits are giving me a little trouble. (going for a BALS with a possible concentration in Humanities)  I don't want a degree from COSC.  Any advice?

I'll attach my most recent degree plan at TESU in case that's helpful.  (I know it has lots of extra credits - I haven't fully decided on some courses and am waiting to swap some out if Study gets more UL history courses approved.)  I also did an Excelsior one as a backup if anyone has familiarity there to offer some input.
