SOS-110 | Second-degree bachelor’s students are exempt

[dfrecore]

Hi All,


If I complete the BABA (Project Mgmt & Supply Chain Mgmt) from UMPI($2800), will I be exempt from SOS-110?

Then, I will complete ten courses in statistics.com($4800) for my BS in Data Science. In addition, I will pay a non-resident fee of $3200.

If you go to TESU for a 2nd bachelor's, then all of the GE and Free Electives will be waived including the cornerstone.  And since that degree does not have a capstone, you will only have to pay the residency waiver fee.

On Statistics.com's website, it says this:


Earn a Bachelor of Science (BS) degree in Data Science Analytics from TESU in partnership with Statistics.com. The core curriculum for 12 courses is $5,700 if you pay in full, or $6,090 pay as you enroll.

Thanks for the guidance. If I take R programming from SDC, then I need to pay around 4100 at Statisctics.com

If I go with this plan, Do I need to wait to get the UMPI degree then start enrolling for Statisctics.com courses, or can I do it in parallel? Please advice.

Why do you need 2 bachelor's degrees from the US? Realistically, you can't work on both at the same time. UMPI has requirements that you must meet each term to remain a student. Both schools are also part of the National Student Clearinghouse so they'll know you're enrolled at both at the same time which also doesn't work. TESU will not allow a person to have more than 2 bachelor's degrees. When you are going for a second bachelor's degree at either school you have to meet specific requirements. At UMPI you will need to complete an ADDITIONAL 30 credits and the UL requirements. You already have a bachelor's degree and you need that evaluated through WES for UMPI. UMPI will then determine if they give you credit for a bachelor's degree. TESU has similar requirements. It may be another body who reviews your degree for TESU. WES is who you have to use for UMPI. Just because WGU doesn't accept your bachelor's degree doesn't mean other schools feel the same. You need to find out how UMPI and TESU view your bachelor's degree before doing anything else.

Thank you for the inputs.

I will do SOS-110, pay the Residency waiver fee and get ASNSM in Computer Science & AS Business.

I will continue taking Statisctics.com courses and get a BS in 2022.

You might as well pick up the ASNSM Math as well, IMO. ASNSM Comp Sci & ASNSM Math count as ONE degree as long as you complete them at the same time. The math one just requires a few extra math courses.
