New Member need assistance with TESU degree plan BA in Lib Studies

Hmm, you can try getting the BALS and/or the BS Tech Studies, this is one of the times I would actually recommend also looking at WGU's BS Software Development program as well. Just apply to both TESU and WGU right after you finish your last semester and get your Associates. You do not want to take any classes with either school until you get the MAX transferred in, you need to have your Associates evaluated for transfer, take all missing general education/lower level requirements, and then enroll at TESU/WGU.

One thing to note: Your community college credits will come in as lower level courses and a max of 60 credits will go towards TESU/WGU, you need to CLEP/ACE/NCCRS the remaining credits for TESU and WGU (if they take the same credits) which essentially are your general education and remaining lower level requirements (or get a few more from the CC until you reach 80 max from the CC). I would recommend just working on general education credits while you're waiting for an evaluation, so finish the last few courses "Strong - get good grades".

In your case, I would email academic advising to see if your SGD courses can be used as Comp Sci. I would think a BALS with an NSM (Natural Science & Math - all LL CS/CIS from Saylor/SL- UL Study.com) concentration would work because UL Tech Studies courses would be expensive. The other option is to transfer as many credits (probably the exact same courses) into WGU Software Development - you still need to take similar courses to transfer in the max.
