I fixed everything and added the new list. But I accidentally put "as of July 2019" instead of as of July 2020 for the fees.and now I can't edit. Oh well....

nathshar, 
Can you expand on "Even if you do the bare minimum you must pay for fees for 2 semesters worth and 6 credits worth of tuition." We are currently trying to develop a degree plan for daughter to do COSC BA General Studies.
-not liking the choice of online concentrations
- and from the forums, I only see 3 or 4 courses thorough SDC and DSST that can be used for UL. Thus, I am wondering more about the 2 semester statement in case it is the answer to reaching the 30 credit UL requirement. Thank you.
