Looking for guidance/degree plan/ general help

This is one of those instances where your courses "fit" better into a one degree, but it ends up not being the better choice.

TESU uses all 96 of your credits, leaving only 8 courses to finish.
EC uses 84 of your credits, leaving 12 courses to finish.

BUT, the cost is the deal-breaker here:
- TESU requires the cornerstone and capstone, and that Historiography course that you can't find for less than $800 as far as I can tell, and the residency waiver; for a grand total of ~$6,200.
- EC requires the capstone, and then everything else is able to be found for $150 or less per course; for a grand total of ~$4,300!

Here are files for both degrees! Enjoy!!

I think there's a good chance that Excelsior will take one of the Western Civilization CLEP exams that Jitzman has already taken for the World History requirement, but I don't know that for certain. If so, that would leave one less class to take.

I don't think most schools consider World History and Western Civ as interchangeable.  In this case, EC specifically requires World History, and if you look further down at IV, it says "Non-Western/World History."  My guess is they won't take it - but it certainly can't hurt to ask.

Also, I forgot to add that you may want to verify with them before taking your history courses, to make sure that they will count as I guessed they would.  I'm not as familiar with EC as I am with TESU.
