Physics Concentration at Charter Oak State College
#21
I have decided, for the time being, that I am still going to be pursing this option.
I have not given up, on my initial D.

You'll have to recalibrate. Charter Oak long ago removed any degree program or concentration in Physics.

Charter Oak has generally removed their concentration options, all of which are attached to a BS in General Studies major. There were formerly over a dozen concentrations to choose from, but there are now only two, Individualized Studies and Judaic Studies.

In some subjects where Charter Oak offers a major's worth of courses themselves, such as Psychology, they have replaced concentrations with majors. But there's no "hard science" subject among them such as physics.

There are relatively few online bachelor's related to physics.

Arizona State University has an online BA in Physics and BS in Biophysics. Liberty University has an online BS in Physics. Western Governors University has bachelor's degrees designed to prepare students as physics or physical science teachers at the K-12 level. There are BS degrees designed to prepare for a teacher's license which include student teaching placements, and BA in Educational Studies variants of each degree that don't prepare for a license and include no student teaching placements. So that is a degree with physics content online. WGU is generally not available to students outside the US and parts of Canada.

If you complete a bachelor's in something else entirely through the UMPI YourPace program, and you completed all the physical science courses elsewhere acceptable to UMPI and transferred them in, you could complete a Physical Science minor attached to your degree, in theory.

You'd have a few more options in engineering or engineering technology.

I don't believe this to be true, until I verify it for myself.

Every major is listed in the Catalog under Undergraduate Bachelor's Degree Programs. You can see Physics isn't there, nor Mathematics. Every concentration available with a General Studies major is listed under General Studies Major Concentrations. You can see there are only two, Individualized Studies and Judaic Studies.
