TESC Criminal Justice question
#1
Hey folks, Does anyone happen to know if these classes I took with the NYPD would meet most of my criminal justice requirements with TESC? I am pretty much looking to maximize my credits and get the fastest undergrad degree possible. I also have 40 fema credits and some gen Ed credits. I was originally going to go the liberal arts or homeland security route but believe I will get more use of my credits this way. Below is the credits through nypd.
