Degree Completion Advice Pierpont/TESU
#2
TESU specifically only allows you to get 2 associates and 2 bachelors. So if he gets the pierpont BOG AAS as a "for now" degree he would only be able to get one of the ASNSMs from TESU. There is no limit to how many of the undergrad certificates he can get(I think one user here has gotten 5 or more). So he could get the CS and/or CIS undergrad certificate(s) plus the BIO ASNSM plus 2 of the BS degrees. As for if Baker would let him finish his game development degree there after geting 1 or more BS's, you'd have to contact them or look up their policy.

As for science labs: "5) He loves all sciences, but has only taken biology I/II w/labs. He was very excited that physics was possibly an option to complete his program. It is my understanding TESU will not waive this requirement for the Technical Studies degree. So it appears the easiest and cheapest path for him would be to take the Study.com Physics I/II courses, the Lab I at SL and the Lab II through TESU. Does anyone have any experience with the SL Physics/TESU lab courses that they could share any advice for him. Are they both self paced? Would the lack of course continuity be problematic in completing either of these lab courses? Is there a better option to knock out the Chem/Physics I/II course/lab requirements we are not seeing and considering? He definitely does not want to do any more college term course work than necessary since attending school f/t around work has been rough to say the least. So the preference would be test out/self paced courses."

Physics 1 and 2 are cheaper at Saylor(only $25 each). But it also depends on how he feels about the format. Saylor may be less structured and passing or failing hinges solely on the proctored final. Yes the phy 1 lab at SL is about the cheapest. keep an eye open for SL promo codes. He will also need to buy a lab kit through them (~$100) TESU phy 2 lab has a ~$125 lab kit. Straighterline, study.com, saylor are all self paced. TESU labs are 6 weeks long. chem 1 lab can be done through ed4credit (self paced) for $65 plus ~$100 lab kit. ed4credit promo code for $25 off: Sunshine2018.
