Second Capstone Required for Second Degree? (BACS now BA Math)
#11
Basically, at this juncture in time, you can decide to go for it or try out WGU BSCS, maybe wait for UMPI BSCS when it comes out in the fall or later in winter 2025. I would continue with TESU if I was in your shoes.

Instead of paying another waiver, if you're wanting to transfer the max to TESU (21 credits out of 24 required of new credits after the first bachelors), my suggestion is to do the flat rate of 15 credits - 4 easy classes/e-packs and the capstone.

Essentially... You can transfer in 9 credits using Sophia.org/Study.com or another ACE/NCCRS recommended provider, these can be classes to bump out the CS/Math or science related electives and can be lower level.

Note: If you went for the flat rate the previous degree instead of paying the waiver, you'll have enough residency credits, you would have only had to transfer in the rest, then pay the capstone fee and grad fee.

I think you got this mixed up at some point. The question is about a Math degree...

Oh right, doh! haha! You can change the WGU and UMPI to APU and SNHU for their online Math degree... But again, I think TESU is your best option for now. Depending on what you're looking for, flat rate should be your best choice and transferring the rest into the BA Math...
