I started with my local community college, and then Excelsior when I found out about them and the fact that they had the AAS electronics degree and I was only a handful of classes short after all my military and community college transfers. I switched to the bachelors of business degree after completing my local community colleges AAS in business management. I spent 6 years total in a factory as a laborer, 2 before and 4 after I was in the military as an Electronics Tech. My 20 years in transportation was primarily as a long haul trucker and then trainer for the last 5 years. I switched to the Operations Manager role for a large manufacturer after receiving my AAS in Business, then after 1 year experience, I switched to an Aerospace electronics manufacturing company to combine my 2 AAS degrees as a Production Manager.
I am not against looking into other schools, and I have been creating a list of which schools might be better. I didn't realize there are this many options available to me to get this accomplished otherwise I would be done already. I did most of my CLEP and DSST exams while I was driving by listening to lectures while I was driving 10+ hours a day. After a week or two of listening to the lectures I would go test out of that subject. My best semester was 39 credits. 12 at community college, 6 through EU, and 21 CLEP.
