Hello! Using the New Year momentum to hopefully make 2023 the year I finally finish this degree. My answers below may look familiar, I just posted a question a week or so ago but didn't include a degree plan. Now that I've got one set up, wondering if anyone wouldn't mind reviewing it for me? One specific question I have is if Sophia's Intro to IT duplicates TECEP CIS 107 Computer Concepts and Applications? I currently have both on my plan, not sure if that's an issue. I need some TECEP's for RA credit.
Your Location: NJ
Your Age: 40's
What kind of degree do you want?: BSBA with Accounting + CIS concentration
Current Regional Accredited Credits: None. Went to the now defunct Katharine Gibbs back in the day, but they lost accreditation years ago
Current ACE, CLEP, or NCCRS Credits: 30 for now. Currently have a Sophia subscription and racking up as many as I can
Sophia (24):
Budget: I'm okay with whatever it takes, within "degreeforum" reasonability
Commitments: Full time job working from home, husband, kid and I volunteer a couple times a week
Dedicated time to study: .I would say 2-3 hours per night on weeknights and an average of 5 or so hours on the weekends. So, maybe 20 hours per week?
Timeline: Would love to finish by the end of the year, but I think that's pushing it - I have a lot of classes to take and many are not easy ones. 18 months would be amazing
Tuition assistance/reimbursement: I do get tuition reimbursement, the standard federal max with stipulations for remaining employed with the company and obtaining certain grades. I may not bother using it since only actual graded courses are eligible. My plan going in is to just pay my own way, and see if I change my mind
