I did look at Charter Oak, however, it seems much harder to do a communications specialization as it is something they do not actually have the courses for. Not only that but, I would prefer to have a BA in Communications rather than a BA in Humanities with Specialization in Communications. It just doesn't read/feel the same with me. I'll revisit it, but then will need to re-vamp my whole plan if I decide to go with that.
So with TESC, basically as long as I agree to take 24 credits through them (including test-outs) I basically only pay activity fees and such for the year and then per credit tuition when I have my capstone.
I'll take a look at Charter Oak but, my other worry is my previous transcript with MCC. Lots of Fs in there from just ignoring classes. I have 3 transferable courses, the rest are tanked.
Charter Oak has (or had) an academic forgiveness policy. I remember reading in their catalog that they will allow you to exclude certain courses from your transcript one time only and you have to do it early I believe. But it seems you have a certain degree in mind and TESC meets your needs.
TESC has certain fees you will have to pay. I believe its a $75 app fee, $58 registration fee, $125 tech fee and $299 grad fee (paid when you graduate). Also the current tuition is $491 per credit for online courses and $37 per credit for TECEP.

Don't waste time by trying to save time. The only sure way to complete your degree is to knock out credits quickly and efficiently.
Don't let easiness bite you in the rear. Know your endgame (where you want to be) and plan backward from there. Your education is a means to an end.
Be honest professionally, socially and academically. There are people (especially little ones) who look up to you and they're going by your example.
Be proud. Whether you're an Engineer or Fast Food worker, there is honor and dignity in hard work.
Picking on people weaker than you only proves that you are a weak person.
