MilSpouse pursing a Human Resources Degree...Advice??
#6
Hmmm.. My wife never had to pay a proctor fee. She just had to pay the CLEP/DSST exam fee. Maybe it depends on the service?

A lot of good schools on Bragg. Interesting enough, Excelsior college is there also. They are like TESC in that they are very clep/alternative credit friendly. Many members of this board use either Excelsior, TESC or COSC. You may be able to enroll in one of the three schools I just mentioned as your main school, clep and straighterline most of your credits, and then use the base schools to fill in any blanks. TESC also has a military spouse friendly tuition. As long as your spouse stays active, you'd be eligible for the Military Degree Completion Program (my wife is doing this) which gives you the military rates which I believe are still capped at the TA rate ($250 per credit hour for online courses). You can do 24 credits worth of TECEPs, and do CLEPs and save a ton of money. If you're interested in something like that, let us know and maybe we can help you come up with a plan.
CLEPS Passed: 10 DSST Passed: 11 TECEPS: 1

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.
