Need help planning BA in Liberal Arts at Excelsior

[guessilldoit]

Hello and welcome to your college journey! Should you continue on with excelsior, I would suggest posting in that forum from now on!
I am a current EC student, Completing my BS in History. Your list if fairly good, and is close to what I thought mine would look like a year ago. However, there are things on it which are outdated, and answers you can only get once evaluated. After evaluation, you have 6 months to decide if you want to enroll. You tell them which 2 degrees you want them to evaluate your credits for.
I had them do BS in liberal arts, and history for me.

So, bottom line is you need 30 UL credits, and 91 LL credits. 41 classes if you will. If you take 13 credits from EC, thats kinda the sweet spot. Price-wise. It also gives you the 3 required classes with them ( cornerstone, capstone, and information literacy ) plus 2 more. Four of the five will be UL ( cornerstone B is UL if you transfer in enough credits ). Which means only finding 6 more UL to transfer in. This is where the forum really shines. We help each other find these classes. Also, your college advisor. For example, some of the classes you thought were UL in your list aren't any longer.

So, here is what I would suggest. Unless you really like/ want to take CLEPS and DSST, I would consider Sophia the Heck out of your LL list. Seriously. If you like how they work, that is. Some people prefer study.com or others.

Thank you! Some of the CLEP's I will be taking are actually my final exams for this year (homeschooled) or because I was planning on studying the language either way, so other than Western Civilization I & II, I'm still going to take them. Thank you for telling me about the fact that some of my information is outdated, I was having trouble finding recent information. I created a slightly different plan of everything I will take before I go to college so I will hopefully be able to transfer everything in and it is honestly okay if some things don't get accepted since I'll be studying things I'm interested in. I decided that, if I go to Excelsior, I'll apply for the History or Liberal Arts degree and have removed the biology courses other than the CLEP and Straighterline Biology lab. I won't be in college until Fall 2022 (taking a gap year instead of doing 12th grade so I can save up money), so I have time to figure everything out. Thank you again for helping!
