Degree planning TESU

[dfrecore]

This is not a degree that can be done easily via alt-credit: there's just no truly inexpensive way to get those UL math credits you need (15cr worth of UL math electives).  Even if you took 3 math courses in your final term at TESU, along with the cornerstone and capstone and a 1cr course, that would be a TON of work and I'm not sure that's a good idea to try to take that on.

Have you taken Calc I, II, III, Linear Algebra (with Calc as a pre-req), and Statistics already?  Do you think you're up to those now, and see how that progresses before you make any decisions?

Also, I would think that transferring your foreign credits would not be a hassle at all.  It's certainly worth the $200-$300 for a WES eval to see how your credits come in before spending more money on RA credits here.  If you have foreign credits, it actually reduces the number of RA credits you need to bring in.  I would spend the money to do this before anything else.  I think it will pay off.

Once you do that, post it here so we can see what you're bringing in.  Then we can tell you if it's worth trying to get the Math degree at TESU.  Or if another school may be a better option.

I wouldn't do any ACE credit until you know more info.

A better option might be SNHU.  They have a BA in Math, and will take 90cr of transfer, including ACE from Sophia, Study.com, and SL; you could take your final 30cr of math there for $320/cr, meaning about $9600 for your final 30cr.

I would probably do this:
1) apply and send your credits - you'll probably have a lot of stuff you already need for the GE, math and/or science, and free electives worst case
2) do any GE with Sophia first since they have a partnership that you can figure out what will work
3) do Calc I & II via SL
4) do any remaining courses with Study.com if need be
Then do the rest at SNHU.

Depending on what you have already taken, you could be halfway done with the degree at this point.
