TESU General Ed Electives, Transfer Limits

[mweichert]

The ASNSM Math is way too expensive to get on its own. It's almost as much as a Bachelor's degree! You don't need an associate capstone but you do still need the cornerstone. Plus the residency waiver. It's about $4500 for just an Associate's degree or about $6000 for a Bachelor's. But an Associate's degree can be "free" when you simultaneously graduate with a Bachelor's. Plus, if you are attending WGU for a Bachelor's, an Associate's degree isn't really going to be worth anything once you have the higher degree.

However, if you don't care about the money, you are confusing the old rule and the new rule. The current rule for TESU is that 45 credits for an Associate's degree and 90 credits for a Bachelor's degree may come from non-collegiate sources. Non-collegiate sources include SDC, Sophia, SL, etc.

Collegiate sources include the capstone (if required), the cornerstone, TECEPs, UExcels, and credits from other RA institutions. This does include WGU.

Thank you so much for the clarification and the tip about associate and bachelor degrees. Makes sense.

Have a great day!
