Bachelor Degrees with the least UL credits
#1
I know the big 3 require somewhere around 15 UL credits. But has anyone heard of any programs that require less than that - maybe around 6 or zero (are there even any that don’t even require them)? Thanks in advance!
BA, New England College, 2019
MA, California State University, LA - Starting Fall 2025

The TESU BSBA only requires 12cr of UL in the AOS - plus the capstone. All of the schools around me require a LOT more than that (like 30-45).

A degree full of 100 and 200 level credit? That's called an Associate Degree. Requiring 5 classes at the 300 level (one of which being the Capstone) is hardly a high bar, no offense. Quite literally, most colleges require the entire junior and entire senior year to consist of 300/400 level classes. Minus count for electives, and you're probably looking at 10-15 classes. I think 5 is a steal.

I did all of my UL through DSST. it was easier than taking 8 or 16 week LL courses.

the hardest DSST/CLEP i did was the biology and it was LL.
