Your Location: Texas, United States
Your Age: Almost 40
What kind of degree do you want?: Any - I am a working professional and ideally a Risk Management/Insurance degree would be great but ANY Bachelors in really any business field is fine. I'd consider management, administration, IT, whatever... I would like to avoid as much math as possible.
Current Regional Accredited Credits: 12
Iona College Total Credits: 6
BUS 130 Legal Environment of Business, 3.00, B+
ENG 120 Commnctn Skills: Writing 1, 3.00, B
Community College of Denver Total Credits: 6
ENG 122 ENGLISH COMPOSITION II, 3.00, B
SOC 102 INTRO TO SOCIOLOGY II, 3.00, B
Current ACE, CLEP, or NCCRS Credits: NONE. I HAD SOME STUDY.COM COURSES STARTED BUT I STOPPED TO BETTER PLAN WHAT I NEED.
CERTS/LICENSES: I am a licensed realtor. License is on hold b/c it's not currently what I do but I took all the courses and everything is in good standing.
I have a TX insurance adjuster's license.
Budget: I have around 10k. I'd like to go the cheapest route possible, but will consider spending more for easy and fast.
Commitments: Kids, spouse, pets, full time job.
Dedicated time to study: I can likely commit to an hour or two every weeknight and 4 hours on the weekend. Between 9-14 hours per week
Timeline: I would like to finish in the next 12-18 months. My oldest son just started college and I need to finish before him
I told myself I would and I've been putting it off too long.
Tuition assistance/reimbursement: Yes, my job offers some type of reimbursement for Gen Ed courses that are job or business related, provided by accredited institutions and pre approved by my HR dept. I prob would not utilize this.
I have read a lot on this forum (thank you all for what you have put here). I initially was thinking that TAMUC would be the best route to go but I see it mentioned less that it used to be. Happy to look elsewhere - UMPI, WGU,... it doesn't matter. It has been awhile since I have been in school. I am historically a good test taker. My written communication is fine but I do not enjoy or excel writing a lot of papers. I prefer quizzes, tests, etc.
