I had 4 littles, we were homeschooling, so I understand your situation well. Further, CLEPs weren't free when I did it, so I had to also budget them in - I did that by saving coins in a jar. When I hit $60 (the cost at that time) I took a test. Had a yard sale, sold stuff on Craigslist, etc. I moved at the speed of budget. But you can absolutely do it. The ACE options available now make it possible to earn at least your first 90 credits for about $3000 or less. You can do it as fast or as slowly as you want- and you can for sure do it at home. I would still encourage you to think about CLEP for the simple fact that the cost is $0 and they are exceptionally more passable than Saylor. DSST shouldn't be ruled out (not free) because it's another pass/fail opportunity for upper-level credit. That's awesome! I did a little digging on the CSI prefix at Rio because I'd never seen that prefix before. I was able to find where these credits came into TESU as business credits. (should be worth 6 credits at TESU) Rio Salado College -->Thomas Edison State University CSI 148 - Credit Card Balance Transfer I Transfer To BUS 299 - Special Topics in Business Rio Salado College --> Thomas Edison State University CSI 149 - Credit Card Balance Transfer II Transfer To BUS 299 - Special Topics in Business RE: easiest way to earn a degree from home...? - allvia - 07-18-2019 (07-18-2019, 05:49 AM)cookderosa Wrote:(07-17-2019, 05:31 PM)gingermama Wrote: Thank you! This is actually one of the things I'm planning to do. i'm in your homeschooling for college credit facebook groups! They will likely fill your electives, as they don't really fit into the AOS - still, 6 credits less you need to earn on way to earning your BSBA at TESU.

The latter one is for continuing education, while the free one is for ACE credit. This is the title: "312N—H Ethics And The CPCU Code Of Professional Conduct — (No CE Credit) (OL)."
