Which college for BA Psychology with sophia starting from scratch - eianmanuel - 10-14-2025

Hello all! This is my first post after perusing this awesome site. 

I am looking to start studying for a BA psychology using sophia. I currently have a high school diploma from a homeschool program from Florida. I never received a transcript, i don't know if they would have one if I asked. Does TESU require a transcript or is a diploma good enough?

Are there any other colleges that would be a good fit and cheaper than TESU?

For the additional 30 RA? credits I'd need, the wiki suggests Waubonsee CC.
Do you guys have any other suggestions?

Also, edison accelerate; what TESU calls their residency waiver which brings down residency credits to 6 costs $3400. How much would it cost to do all 30 at TESU vs alternative program+residency waiver+6 residency credits?

Finally, should I start knocking out classes on sophia before I've even chosen a college? 

Thank you so much!
