Nuclear Associates Degree

Honestly, you've been trying to convince your brother to do something like this for years now. If he doesn't want to do it, you're wasting your time.

I'd keep on him about CLEPs/DSSTs, though. He can likely pass several more with very minimal studying.

Yeah I figured as much. This post was kind of my last effort.

But I will try to convince him to take more CLEPs considering he got perfect scores from the ones he did with no studying.

I think I'm just going to give up on this.  I will try to convince him to apply to TESU (or some other school) that gives him max of military credit on a transcript and take a single course or TECEP. Just to get all those credits on a transcript and then if he wanted to be a CPA or employment the credit would be on a college transcript. I think that would something reasonable to suggest that requires basically no effort or money. Do you think this would be worth it? or does this seem silly to do?

It isn't just my brother though. I know people with over 100 credits that don't who could easily finish their degree. I tried to them they could finish there degree for 4 - 8k with almost no effort and they don't want to. Many of them even get pell grants or tuition reimbursement at work too. I also know someone who has like a zillion credits changed school so many times and I'm pretty sure all they would need is the cap/cornerstone to get a degree but they don't want to. I guess to me personally it seems silly not to take the opportunity. To each his own I guess. I think a lot of them don't understand and think it is a diploma mill and isn't a real degree.
