Does anyone have an idea what would be an "easy" second BA after a BA Psych...taking into account the new requirements?
In other words, if one does as many tests as possible to get a BA Psych, what is a second BA that there is an abundance of other (not already used for BA PSych) CLEP/DSST/etc. to fulfill that "EXTRA 24 Credits" after the first BA.
Not sure if this is at all relevant but - I really want to study Neuroscience but that isn't something TESC offers.
Total Newb - Enrolled at TESC for AA, eventually going for BA Psych.
Thanks to everyone who provides such awesome information on this site, I'm slowly getting the hang of this crazy process.
CLEP - Intro. Psych. - 63, A&I Literature - 72, Intro. Edu. Psych. - 59
ALEKS - Intermediate Algebra
FEMA - 12 Credits

I have no experience with how hard it is to get approval, but TESC does have a Learner Designed Area of Study (LDAS) option. I believe you provide them with a list of courses you would like to take that covers a subject area that they don't currently offer. If they approve your plan, you're good to go. Hopefully, Sanantone will chime in here because if I remember right she submitted a plan for an LDAS although it was denied.
Actually, I'd even be interested in hearing more about this option myself. I should be done with my degree at TESC pretty soon, and from the time I enroll until I graduate will be very short (only the Capstone). So I'll have around a year left for my tuition fee (especially if I pay the extension fee) that I could use to try and earn a second bachelors. If I could get some kind of LDAS approved then that might be something I'm interested in doing as well.

I tried twice for the BSBA LDAS. Don't try this. There is not much else they will accept because they already offer concentrations in most of the business fields. It should be easier to get a BS or BA LDAS approved because they'll let you mix liberal arts with applied fields. There is also the BSAST LDAS, but I'm sure this has to be technical in nature.
There are plenty of extra tests for history, humanities, and natural science/mathematics.

I forgot business. There are plenty of extra tests for business. The BSBA in General Management is easy to test out of, and all of the BSBAs do not have a capstone.
