AS or BS from Excelsior

[ChristaKB]

Hi guys, came to this board again as you have so much experience with Excelsior.

I have about 60 credits by now and looking to transfer there. I would like to get my AS before I get my BS. I checked the Excelsior website and I have one exam left (Dantes statistics) before I meet the AS requirements.

My question is: do I enroll now as an AS student (and pay the AS fee of almost $1000) to get my AS and then one month later (after I get my AS) enroll as a BS student (and pay the BS fee)? Or do I wait until I have about 80 credits to enroll for my BS? If I go for that last option, will they still give me my AS degree?

Thanks for your help, I can't seem to figure this one out:confused: !

BTW, I love Instantcert, absolutely awesome way to learn!

If you graduate with an Associate Degree at Excelsior, I think they offer you a discount if you then register for a Bachelors within one year of graduating.

I don't know if they still offer it, but here's what I have jotted down about it:

$895.00 AS Enrollment
$465.00 AS Graduation
($450.00/yr additional fee if graduation take longer than 1yr)

$515.00 BS Enrollment within 1 yr of AS (normally $995.00)
$495.00 BS Graduation
($515.00/yr additional fee if graduation take longer than 1yr)
