Excelsior cryptic answers on UL/Study.com equivlencies

Ddrecore-

I am thinking about recommending it to her. After posting the degree plan which I think I need to do in the general education board and not here, I need to ask what the general costs are.  Considering that so far, it looks like the BA LS at Excelsior is about $4000-4500 and the COSC degree is around $4500, that might be a better option.

I need to do the price breakdown and will do so in a little bit, but, the price breakdown I can see so far is"

COSC - Individualized Studies concentration = $4588
EC BS Liberal Arts = $4,000 - $4,500
TESU BA Liberal Arts = $6136
WGU Business Admin Bachelors = about $3000 every 6 month term

WGU only gave her 108 out of 120 credits in transfer credits.  Realistically knowing her, she is probably going to take at least 1 year so it is about $2k more than the EC or COSC option.  We are self funding and have a son who will be in college next Fall so we are very cost sensitive.

Thanks,

EducationSeeker

  COSC only transferred in 35 as opposed to 57 credits at EC, but, if EC going to be a pain in the butt, I think I might recommend COSC as a better option?
