Looking for something similar to the FEMA programs that indirectly give college cred
#11
I will probably do that.

I do have one concern. At TESC or any of the "big three", what is the minimum number of credits you have to take with them to earn a degree? I ask this because I don't want to duplicate any work.

I will be getting just an assosiates for now.

I agree with BrandeX. For Excelsior, as far as I know, you can test out of almost all of the credits and none are required to be through them (depending on your degree choice).
AS in 2010 and BS in 2013 at Excelsior College - Transcripts and Costs
MS Biostatistics in 2019 at Texas A&M University - Graduate School

Sharing Credit-by-Exam* and Help for Veterans
Resources Used - 20+ Exams Passed & General GRE

TESC is the same way, they don't require any credits be taken with them. However, with all 3 of the "big 3" you may have a class that can't be tested out of (lack of available test). In that case, you can take it with that college or elsewhere. If it's something you know already, you can challenge the course (usually).
