Need advice with degree plan for TESC. Human Services vs. Psychology

[bricabrac]

I would seriously consider the degree that would help me the most professionally. You can test out of the majority of the degree. It is only the area of study (18cr) that you may have to take in actual courses. You could always take them at cheaper online schools and transfer the courses in. TESC now has the pay per credit tuition program. You can use TECEP exams in GenEd and some of the PSY courses you need, the final 3/24 credit residency requirement would be the capstone. Then fill the majority of your degree by testing and/or alternate methods (Aleks, Penn Foster, Straighterline).

I think if you take some time to draft a plan of action you will see the degree can still be completed at a reasonable price. There is a price comparison spreadsheet in my signature, as well as the link to the thread where I give advice/thoughts on the tuition program.

Good luck on your path to success!
