Speedy and Inexpensive Bachelors

[ATM925]

**UPDATE**

I started at TAMUC - BAAS Safety and Health in the Summer II term. I could not get started in spring as life and work got in the way, but spoke to Becky at TAMUC in the early summer and she advised the in state 7 week tuition was being increased from $750 per term to $1000 per term in the fall but if I got started and continued than I'd be grandfathered in at $750. Completed 3 courses in the summer term and 5 Sophia courses in the last 3 weeks so beginning fall term I'll be taking TX Government and starting on my 10 applied major courses. I have a busy fall with work but think should be able to complete my degree by the end of the spring term depending on how easy/difficult it is to accelerate.

I struggled with the major decision between OL, GS, and Safety and Health and ultimately landed on this one as I am indirectly in the safety field and it seems more applicable than OL. I am 40 and mostly just checking the box and want to study something that interests me. I wish TAMUC would allow GS majors to complete applied major courses from the other CBE programs. If that were allowed I would have chosen some criminal justice and health and safety as well as some OL courses to complete my degree and I truly would feel that would lead to me having a more well rounded degree.... it is what it is...

I want to thank you all for the info on this site. Not sure I ever would have started if it wasn't for you all and the info here. I am already looking at potential graduate degrees!
