I'm looking for someone who has earned an associate degree from COSC or TESC and then successfully transferred that degree to a bigger college for a Bachelor degree. I realize that every college is different and that people need to check with the EPC of their on their own. However, it would be nice to give an example of a bigger college who has accepted the associate degree as a block of credits and didn't pick and choose which of those 60 credits they would accept. If you have accomplished this, I would love to read where your degree was from and to where it transferred. Thanks for your help!
Some people get their associates through COSC and TESC and realize that moving it into a BA/BS at the same college makes a lot of sense. Or Excelsior. Many people on here have their BA/BS and gone on to do Masters degrees and onwards. Local Community colleges usually give best value when it comes to cost per credit hour mine is around $91 and they also allow you to use CLEP and DSST. Any major college should have a webpage that will give their CLEP policy although most of them will limit the amount of CBE credits transferred in. Most students don't care enough to test out of more than a class or two. it is just easier to use their FAFSA money and go to class. Some people think it is easier to test out of a particular subject than take the class although many of them haven't actually taken a test in order to do so. The students on here are brilliant, dedicated and a friendly bunch most are seeking more than an Associates but it always is a good to set your own goals.
Don't forget that gaining college credit by taking exams is one of the reason's we're here. That's mainly possible through the flashcards made available by the owner of this forum : InstantCert Plus of course your hard work in learning and reviewing
