Hey everyone hope you'll are having a great summer but it sure is hot here in Tennessee. Too hot for me with my bum heart. I would like to take a general UL course for TESC in liberal arts area (no math please), I would prefer taking it at a school that doesn't cost as much as TESC, but would like to be able to use a proctor instead of going to the local testing center at our college (always a problem during the summer). Fortunately, I do have many professionals who are able to proctor if I could just find a course. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I love history, social studies courses and I'm so close now that I would like to have the leisure of enjoying the course. Any suggestions?
Thanks,

I don't know what DSSTs you have taken, but have you taken all the UL History DSST's that are available? Civil War and Reconstruction and Western Europe are considered a 200 level by TESC, but Rise & Fall of the Soviet Union, History of the Vietnam War, and An Introduction to the Modern Middle East are considered 300 level courses. Substance abuse is also considered a 300 level social science by TESC. And they will be cheaper than almost any course out there.

He doesn't want to go to a testing center, so no DSST, etc.
How about a religion related course? I was just looking at the following from seminary extension:
Seminary Extension: Course Catalog
It's ACE reviewed for 3 UL credits, and should cost around 200 dollars or so I believe.
