Transfer Evaluation Woes

Sometimes it's a little frustrating deciphering what is shown, that's why we have such a supportive forum.  It's OK to rant and vent, but you should really relax and review the following advice.  You need to go through a degree plan according to your various variables you want to follow (cost, ease, speed), etc...

My main concern at the moment really isn't the evaluation, it's your decision to decide on the degree/institution of choice.  From your current evaluations... What degree/institution hits your fancy? What would that choice of degree/institution be?  The reason is, you need to decide if it fits your goals, especially cost, ease, speed to finish.

1) Regarding your degree plan - It's not 130 or 138 credits, you've miscalculated my darling!  It's 21 on the top field, 7 on the bottom field, total 28.  What's listed under that is the requirements required for both fields.  Thus, you only need 28 credits remaining to complete the degree.

2) When you get an email reply back, you'll get the following answer, why you can't use any other classes for the Lower Level requirements. As per point 1, you need specific requirements, that's your Cornerstone, Info Lit, English II - 7 credits baby girl!  We got your back really good!

3) You're only left with 21 credits for upper level - 18 UL credits in any arts and science of your choice, pick something of interest, from a cheapo source from NCCRS such as LawShelf, to CooperSmith/Davar, or stick with ACE options such as Study.com for 6 sexy classes to finish off the degree - plus the 3 credit Capstone.
I knew I was reading something wrong! Degree Forum to the rescue! For reference, I am getting the degree to “check the box” to go along nicely with my 25 years of marketing experience. Not looking for a new job at the moment.  I have with my current company almost 16 years. I always just wanted to satisfy this one missing link from my life.  With that said, finishing whatever I need through the 3 other sources at my pace, and the required credits at EU, is there really the most economical and potentially less stressful for me. If I need the 7 at EU, that’s $2,870 ($410 a credit w/Sophia discount) + the $300 transfer eval fee for new UL credits. It looks like Lawshelf and CooperSmith are incredibly inexpensive. 5 classes at Lawsmith for $150 and $20 a credit at CooperSmith!! So really, EU maybe my final destination. Thrilled to see Lawshelf is open book voice proctor, which I excel at. And my own pace is more desirable, than a term I have to fit into. 

My question is…how do I know if the courses I chose at LawShelf, Coppersmith or Study are acceptable? 

I’m going to do some digging on what to take to satisfy as well, but looking forward to your advice  Thank you for your kind words and assistance.
