Please help me choose a college..
#2
Hi Alan,
Most state colleges offer a General Studies degree with between 20-30 hours of residency required. You could go that route. You could even get an Ivy League General Studies degree from Columbia Columbia University School of General Studies or Harvard Programs : Harvard Extension School or brand name Penn State Penn State | Earn an Online Masters Degree, Bachelors Degree or Associate Degree if you have plenty of time and scratch. The PLA route costs money as well. It you decide to pursue an arts degree, then check out TESC's BA in Photography which has a concentration in Film and accepts PLA credit Thomas Edison State College | BA in Photography Credit Distribution. IMO, the most cost effective route will still be testing out from either TESC or Excelsior. With your background, it would seem to me that a Business degree would be practical and not that much more effort than a Liberal Studies degree. I earned 72 credits and a General Business degree from Excelsior in a little less than 6 months going the testing route...mainly CLEP, DANTES, ECE and TECEP.
Good luck whichever way you go!
