TESU, EC, COSC: Quickest & Cheapest?
#2
EC doesn't let you transfer in quite as many courses as you might expect and it's a bit difficult to plan for. It's marginally cheaper than TESU but you might pay for that cost with more frustrations and having to take courses through them, raising the expected price tag by a bit. IIRC, they require 30 UL credits for a degree, which again can be difficult to get when they don't accept as many things in transfer as you might like.

COSC is the cheapest, on paper. However, they do require the 24 RA credits. Even if you get credits through TEL Learning or some other inexpensive source, that raises the cost of credits by quite a bit. Also, they do not allow you to complete the capstone and cornerstone at the same time. This drags out the time it takes to complete a degree.

TESU is the most transparent and open about what they do and do not accept. They do allow you to complete the capstone and cornerstone at the same time. However, they are absolutely awful at communication (which, to be fair, most colleges are). They may not accept your TEEX credits, at least not initially. You're going to have to argue with them there. Otherwise, check this page on the wiki for a generic BALS plan: https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Ge...egree_Plan Once TESU has evaluated your credits, you can start filling in the empty slots.
