If I were advising him, I would tell him to do the following:
1) Take Stats through ALEKS ($20) or Saylor ($25)
2) Take the Insurance Ethics course (Free)
3) Take Intro to Computer Science through Saylor ($25)
4) Take Principles of Finance through Saylor ($25)
5) Take BUS210: Corporate Communication through Saylor ($25)
6) Take English Comp II and International Business through Study.com ($199 for a month, but gets him the discount) - he can also take any of the above courses through Study.com if he wants, but I'm guessing he can pass #1, 2, & 3 without breaking a sweat.
7) Send any and all completed courses to ACE
8) Apply to TESU as soon as the Study.com courses are done - as an affiliate member
9) Register to take the capstone
10) Graduate. I'm guessing he could be done with his courses before he starts the capstone if he jumped on it.
oh my goodness, this is so helpful! he is really close! this sounds like a great and doable plan! a few quick questions...
-i'm not that familiar with the saylor route...basically he would go through the provided information and take an online proctored test? and it the cost for that $25 or $100 (just trying to make sense of the cost calculations) i know it said $25 for the test and $20 to eventually get a transcript, are there other fees associated?
-is there any insight into about the time required per saylor course? i looked at the intro to stats one and added up the hours noted for all units and it was 99 hours which i might not be able to get him on board for haha. do you just need to 'go over the material' and then take each unit quiz and the final assessment? or are there other assignments
-would the MS windows administration or fundamentals: computer network not count for the intro to computing?
-what kind of time commitment is the capstone?
Thank you again so much for everything! I can't even express how grateful we are!
