Quote:SECOND BACCALAUREATE DEGREE

[...]

Based on University policy, all general education requirements, other than those considered specific degree requirements will be considered satisfied based on the completion of a first bachelor's degree from a regionally-accredited US institution. Your evaluation will show only those general education requirements that must be completed as part of your degree program.

Cool. I didn't see anything like this in the catalog (what a surprise...)

I think it's implied by the absence of "general education" from the "Earning a Second or Successive Baccalaureate Degree" section, while it's included in, for example, "Earning a First Baccalaureate Degree after Earning an advanced or professional Degree."

 I'm looking to complete a computer science degree from TESU.
I have only done Calculus and CS101 in the required courses, so everything else in the AOS will be new credits.

Calculus is one of the toughest courses to do! Computer Architecture is the 2nd toughest.

I would do courses in this order.
Operating Systems
MIS
Systems Analysis
Database Management
Discrete Math
Intro Programming (50% of data structures is done after you complete this course)
Data Structures (assignment is in Java)
Computer Architecture

* Do TECEP Network or a TESU course Software Engineering
* Once you hit 100 credits done, start a TESU term then finish out any other credits left.
Degrees: BA Computer Science, BS Business Administration with a concentration in CIS, AS Natural Science & Math, TESU. 4.0 GPA 2022.
Course Experience:  CLEP, Instantcert, Sophia.org, Study.com, Straighterline.com, Onlinedegree.org, Saylor.org, Csmlearn.com, and TEL Learning.

For something like Computer Science (actually anything that's a BA), there is nothing else required outside of the major/AoS.


For the BS degrees, they generally have additional requirements that need to be met in the GE, that would be required in addition to the AoS/Major.
 - For the BSBA you'd need College Algebra or higher.  The old catalog would also have included Stats as an additional requirement - but that's now in the Core.
 - For the BSIT, you'd need Computers, Stats, College Algebra, Precalc, and Chem I & II with labs or Physics I & II with labs.

You need more than the 24 minimum as the AOS requires more credits than that, including the capstone.  As mentioned already, your gen eds and free electives are accounted for though.  You may want to provide more details, have you applied to TESU yet?  Can you use this template here? https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-...Area-works

You'll also have 6 credits of "additional area of study electives", which will accept any natural science or math (in addition to computer science).
