It's generally per DEGREE, as you pay when you apply to graduate... but it's valid for 12 months, so you can get multiple degrees under one fee if you're quick or time it right (usually an assoc + bach, but possibly a second bach if you time it right)

I'd recommend you wait until you finish the requirements for both degrees and THEN apply for grad, so it's under one resident fee... unless there is a valid reason (pay increase, hiring req) to offset the difference if you fail to finish the BA within 12 months of your AA.

I guess I wanted to complete the AA and take a hiatus, but now that I see it is not that hard to go the entire way and get a BA, I might consider it, in the end just the BA is good, I know there are some advantages to break it in two parts, but then if one takes 16 cr of TESU courses, does it matter if it is same year or is it good for the entire time it takes to complete the degree? I would like to take some UL classes with them, and wonder if PLA-200 counts as 12 credits, to take those courses all at once. That would shorten the time for the required amount of credits needed to satisfy residency requirements.
