Degree Plan for Biology
#13
(12-17-2017, 08:53 AM)cookderosa Wrote: An important consideration for this degree is how you'll pay for your upper level courses and science labs.  While it is true that you can take them somewhere and transfer them over, you're looking at no less than $10,000 to do that- and you won't be able to use financial aid at 2 schools to do that (TESU + somewhere else), so you'll have to technically apply for financial aid at the school where you'll be taking your sciences instead of TESU.  I paid cash out of pocket for my sciences- and my lab sciences cost more than my entire AA and BA degree combined.
While it wasn't mentioned in the thread, my advice is to seriously look at taking your core sciences at your in-state community college (many offer distance learning) because this will be the best potential for saving cash.  If your local CC offers tuition in the $100 range, you'll cut the costs WAY down.  You''ll still have the (expensive) hurdle of filling in your upper level credits, which you should figure out ahead of starting this degree.

Ok, dumb question.  In looking through this thread, I could not find where the OP asked about financial aid, or anything of that nature.  Did I miss something??
