If you live in the US, are at least 20, and don't already have an Associate, you might as well get the FREE Pierpont degree when you get 60 credits: https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Pierpont_C%26TC

What do you need 60 credits for? Alternate credits are the fastest way to get to 60, but may not be appropriate for all situations. There are exams (CLEP, UExcels and TECEPs) for credit, but those can be difficult and might not work for what you need. ASU ( https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Ar...al_Learner ) has some of the easiest credit, but not all of it is self-paced. ONU ( https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Ol...University ) has a total of 63 self-paced credits available, but not all of those are easy and fast; the ULs can be particularly onerous and not everyone wants to do religious courses. There is also TEL ( https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/TEL_Learning ) but each of those requires two exams plus assignments.

If this is for work, I strongly recommend Pierpont if that is an option for you. It's doubtful that most employers would understand what Sophia credits are, but they should recognize that Pierpont acknowledges that they are legit credits once the Sophia credits are on a degree transcript.

I'm From USA . But don't have US permanent resident or citizenship .

In that case, yes, I think a Pierpont degree wouldn't work. Unfortunately.

What do you need the credits for? Your best bet might still be a transfer-friendly Associate degree.

For Job ! Here Is Job Requirements 

" successfully completed 60 college semester credits at an accredited college or university with at
least a 2.0 cumulative index or its equivalent "


* Couple of my friends fullfil this job requirements through FEMA - Frederick Community College .

But its Quite Expensive

[rachel83az]

Okay, so, if FEMA + Frederick worked, then alternate credits + a college or university to turn it all into a degree should work. That would be cheaper than the $90/credit for Frederick.

Your options are either to go through Charter Oak or Purdue University Global. Charter Oak would be more expensive once you factor in the cost of taking additional courses. Check out this thread on PUG: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-...ity-Global

Assuming $3000 for a degree from PUG (adding up test fees, PUG tuition, etc), that should be about half the cost of what your friends paid to FCC.

So, you're an international student! What is your budget to get to this educational journey?
Great, we've established a bit of info, but it may be better to provide us more details, we can help further...
I suggest you follow this template: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-...Area-works
While you're doing that... You should decide to either finish a PUG Associates or an UMPI Associates (not YourPace)

I applied for asylum . I have Employment Authorization Document & Social Security number .i file tax every year & earn approximately 60k . Location NYC . I don't have any college credit .

[rachel83az]

Isn't the UMPI non-YourPace Associate just way too expensive? I think it'd be about $400/credit x 15 + whatever credits you transfer in from elsewhere. I think that can work out to be more than TESU.

@Nadim007 , you're welcome - I got your PM and responded with the above post. Read below...

My suggestion is to do this: Apply to UMPI for a Bachelors, add AALS as a second program, complete 60-90 credits using Sophia.org, 1 term of UMPI at $1400. Total, it will cost you will be under $1500 for that Associates... just make sure your UMPI courses "finish" the associates degree and you have it on a transcript showing you ALL 60+ credits! Further to that, if you want to finish the Bachelors, you just need one more term at $1400...
