New here - Looking to upgrade to a degree (Canadian resident)

@zzzz24 I think TESU would be best. You don't need to do a lab course unlike COSC and there is a lot more information about what transfers as what into TESU. They are also more generous to grant UL credit, though this is changing recently.

If you want my advice you can take the route I did. You already have 26X3 = 78 credits. Send them to WES and after the evaluation get them sent to TESU. People complain about WES but since speed is your main agenda pay for rush everything and within a month you'll get the evaluation. In the mean time apply to TESU and take a TECEP or the Cornerstone, I recommend the cornerstone cause it can be done without studying in a few hours and in your case you may actually need it and it locks you in for a year (enrolls you).

While you are bored waiting for WES for about a month take the free TEEX courses and the free courses on Sophia Learning, those free 8 credits give you a great motivation boost! After I finished my first free course I really felt like I could do it.

TESU is very generous. I started with 46 credits (all in CJ) and of those 12 transcribed as UL courses, 9 of which are AOS and all were fit in somewhere so get those done ASAP. If you are looking for a "legal" based degree you can do the CJ concentration in the BALS, what you are missing propero-pearson will have, I could have done that but I don't like CJ anymore.

You also say you don't like math. The best platform for math I have used of all I evaluated (SL, Sophia, Aleks, Saylor, Study.com) is Sophia learning. Their college algebra course was fun, and the quizzes align well with the material. If you don't like the instructor there is a variety of instructors to choose from. It is more expensive than the rest but it was very good after your eval if you need a math course do the Sophia College Algebra. It is worth the cost trust me, it will save you a lot of headache what is taught it what is on the test.

Also any courses you want to do here is a thread I found helpful:
