I may or may not have been in that hypothetical situation. Lol.
We are all on the same side here, trying to better our lives....so let's get along and help each other out.
Learn a trade. Gain technical skills. Make money, then use this money to get a degree...if you have the desire.

Well looks like I may not graduate in August after all. I am 1 credit short. Not 1 class, 1 credit. I have well over the 60, I'm just 1 short on math/science.
Oh well, maybe December graduation

I'm still short a couple of classes and according to Nancy Parks, you should just submit your August graduation and complete any credit courses as fast as you can. I'm already done with Sociology just need Environmental Science from SL to finish up.
I say take any science course on SL as fast as you can and submit your transcripts.

Can you knock out one of those free 1 cr Sophia courses and send in a new transcript today and still make it? Those courses can be done within an hour or so.
Oh wait, never mind I somehow missed that it was specifically math/science that you’re missing. ALEKS?

Well I think I just got 70% on ALEKS college algebra. I'm still a little fuzzy on how they work. Hopefully it's approved quickly.
That will be a good thing because after talking to Nancy, I found out the course that was 2 credits wouldn't count for their math requirements. It was a statistics class that ACE recommended credit for stats or mathematics. They will view it as a stat class and that will go into general electives.

Either the Applied Liberal Arts Math or Algebra DSST or the College Math CLEP, or a math course on Study.com might work.
Also, if you just want the fastest for-credit science available, I've heard that the Rio Salado Nutrition Lab is SUPER fast and easy. Like a few days. Not sure how quickly they would get the transcript out though...

Well I passed the ALEKS and it was added to my ACE in about an hour. I've been in contact with Nancy all day through email. Looks like the only questionable things are the computer literacy and social science requirements. She's not sure if the study.com library science will count. I have an American government class that counts but The Vietnam history course may or may not count. History classes can generally count but not sure about a small specific time period focused one.
Anyway, the math is taken care of. Now to figure out what to do with the rest of my month at ALEKS...

PreCalc and one of the stats classes if you can stomach it.

Will Pierpont accept TECEPs for all 12 of the RA credits?

You'll still need a graded class for a GPA. I'm thinking a UExcel and 3 TECEPs would work.
