TESU BALS Degree Plan Help

[dfrecore]

frank.f.franky did respond to my inquiry on https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-...om-CHE-111 and basically it has not been worked out, so we still do not know if a Chem I and a Physic I will meet the criteria or if you need what I and dfrecore have always been led to believe (by TESU) is that you need Chem I & II w/labs OR Physics I & II w/labs.

Don't take the Chemistry I - StraighterLine, it has been down graded by TESU which is most unfortunate (see the same thread listed above for more on that).  I personally would recommend completing a I & II (same subject) through a CC - series sciences like these tend to be easier to complete if you take them through the same provider (as they tend to pick up on II where I left off). 

If your local CC does not have a good option for you, or is not bargained priced. Check out Clovis CC (NM) http://www.clovis.edu/ , New Mexico Jr College http://www.nmjc.edu/ (or pretty much any NM state school for out-of-state students online courses very low costs)  - I know that Rio Salado (AZ) gets recommended here often as well (I have not used them myself), although far more costly then the other two NM schools for non AZ residents http://www.riosalado.edu - but they do offer both subjects I & II w.labs starting this fall.   I'm quite sure that you've missed the summer sessions for these subjects.

The nice thing about Rio Salado that the other schools don't have is rolling starts.  They pretty much start every Monday.  And, with many courses, you can also choose an 8-week or 16-week option.  The other schools are going to have your regular old Semester-based system, with 16-week courses that only start at the beginning of the semester.  I personally would pay more to choose my start date and do an accelerated option.
