Degree planning before semester starts
#1
Hi everyone! I'm asking for some guidance on planning my degree before I register for classes. I have 61 credits from Community College.
I know that TESU allows 90 college hours/credits from Colleges and 90 from ACE/NCCRS sources (TESU Credit Info)
Does this mean I can take my 61 credits from community college + earn 60 from ACE/NCCRS to make the 120 for a Bachelors degree? Along with the 2 required classes TESU makes you take.

Thank you! I emailed an academic advisor already but they've taken forever to get back to me so I wanted to ask as I've been anxiously trying to figure this out.

Self info:
Your Location: Florida  
Your Age: 28
What kind of degree do you want?: Ba in Psych or Sociology or Anthropology (These 3 fit the req. I need for my career path) 
Current Regional Accredited Credits: 61 credits from Community College
Current ACE, CLEP, or NCCRS Credits: None
Any certifications or military experience?: KP Python Code Specialist 
Budget: preferably $5k range 
Commitments: Currently a full time student
Dedicated time to study: All, I am full steam ahead with getting my BA 
Timeline: I hope to get my BA this year so I can apply by January of next to a graduate program
Tuition assistance/reimbursement: Pell grant

TESU and UMPI Psych degrees are good choices for you, there are other options as well, but I suggest UMPI first, TESU as backup.

Thank you for the reply! I read posts 11 and 13 but I am wondering why you suggest UMPI over TESU? I am still learning the intricacies of the two options.
