There is a lot for me to learn. Thanks for explaining the residency thing to me.  I'm going to have to think about what to do! My primary reason for the associates degree to have something on my resume ASAP but that's a steep price to pay!

If you just want an associate's on your resume while you finish the bachelor's, you might be a candidate for the WV Board of Governors (BOG) AAS at Pierpont (https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-...AAS-thread). You can transfer in 100% of the credits needed for the degree, they accept alternative credit and there are no fees to pay. You have to have at least 15 credit from an RA school, but with your TESU courses and TECEPs, I think you're fine on that. It's not as popular here as it once was for a couple of reasons. The first being that Pierpont won't issue a transcript if you take no courses there, however that's not a problem just for putting it on your resume. The second issue is that Pierpont moves very slowly and doesn't give much feedback. Everything seems to funnel through one woman, and you have to keep on things to get it done.

Degree Audits
Degree audits must be completed during the semester prior to your final semester where you plan to graduate. The purpose of the degree audit is to ensure that you will have completed all
coursework necessary to obtain your degree prior to your final scheduling session.

My mistake, it's only 12 credits.
