I don't think (not sure) that he'll necessarily go after a full degree (which is what I want) but I think he can at least get his courses into their system. He's leaning toward, though not yet made a decision about, the Air Force. If he does enlist, he can have at least 33 credits and get a bump to E2. If he doesn't enlist, he's likely going to get serious pressure from his dad and I to work on an AA. He can attend my hubby's college for free, but his interest level dips into negative numbers. They do, however, have a management degree in which they accept any AA/AS/AAS/AOS as block credit- so I think that is the most cost effective / credit reward option we have. UNLESS someone has a better suggestion?? I'm wide open.
The AAS in Administrative Studies at TESC might be a good option. You could use FEMA as elective credit, and test out of the entire degree pretty easily. And since it's an associate's, you wouldn't have to complete any coursework. At Charter Oak, you would still have to complete the Cornerstone, which I'm in right now. I've completed the degree requirements for the AAS in Admin Studies at TESC, and I'm considering enrolling and graduating to have something to go along with my Charter Oak BS degree.

EDIT: After looking at the link, I realize that they've added a capstone to the course since the last time I've looked. Idk if that can be tested out of or not.
