Thinking of getting a second TESC BA degree...
#8
Hi Sanantone,

Okay, so because I am in a Scientific Discipline (BS) that means I can't double major in an Arts (BA) degree? That sucks.

What might some other double major options be? Are there any science options that do not have this dreaded "Capstone" project I keep hearing people complain about?

I have 3 months to kill, where I am used to taking 2 TESC courses, one at the BS level and one at the MSN level, I think I am going to go nuts with all this free time in between now and April Semester. I was hoping to bang out another degree if possible and I love the arts.

Supposing I were to finish my BSN, could I then transfer those credits at TESC for a BA in Humanities? Would that still mean 24 more credits to earn in Humanities classes?

One more question...what test out options would work (count for the 24 needed credits) for the Humanities major at TESC? Any CLEP's? DSST's SL's or ALEC's? What is the capstone all about anyway?

I am getting the BSN no matter what... the BA in Humanities is more for personal satisfaction and just learning more about something in the arts.

Any additional advice?

Thanks,
T
