TESU - BA in Music - Time and Money

[Nivondu]

Howdy! Thank you in advance! I've been lurking here quite a while but I need some help gameplanning:
TESU has a BA of Music and I'm trying to complete it in the most cost effective way but would love to hear if there are those out there with ideas.

I only need 23 Credit Hours and I had it all planned out (see below) but then I was told about the $2500 Residence Waiver Fee from TESU... so thats what got me searching. Is there a way to do this better?
