How did you choose from the Big 3?

[rlw74]

I chose TESU because:
1. There was a lot more info on this forum to help guide me in what I could or could not take.
2. Dfrecore made a spreadsheet for me based on how my credits would come in. I only needed a little over 40 credits plus the capstone so I saw it would be fast and cheap.
3. The 30 UL credits needed at COSC would have taken longer.
4. I didn't care much for the COSC degree options.
5. I honestly don't know much about Excelsior. I remember looking at them but not seriously.
6. I had a lot of transcripts! I know this sounds dumb maybe but the cost to send all the transcripts 3xs plus application fees would have cost hundreds of dollars. I knew before I applied to TESU how most of my credits would come in. There were only two courses in question and they would have at least fallen into free electives, so they weren't wasted. I chose to spend those hundreds of dollars on courses and was able to start immediately, vs. waiting to be evaluated at the other schools.
