TESU extra DSST

[natshar]

Don't forget you have to do 2 capstones. So you are already at 9 credits and 2 terms. Idk where you will get the last UL for Finance it is hard to find.

I guess everyone on this forum is different. Some value time more and some value money more. I think during this time period, for a lot of people money would be more valuable than time, because we have nothing but time now. And with being unemployed there might be little to no money coming in. And I don't think over $1000 is a few bucks.

But I have seen this debate in different ways on this forum before. The old time vs money debate or more work vs more money. Everyone has different opinions on it and that is perfectly ok.

EDIT: Also if you get aid and assuming you don't want to take the capstones together. TESU requires 6 credits a term. So if you did that you would be at 12 credits. So at that point, you would be close, so at least it would make sense to consider bumping up to 16. If you were at 12 credits and then did 16 credits, you would probably save at least $1300 or more. Not telling you what to do but just something to consider if you get financial aid and/or can't find a good way to get the last UL finance course. And if you do the two capstones separate and don't overlap you are looking at 2021 graduation. So if you want 2020 grad you have to take two capstones at once or overlap them.

Only 1 capstone to do + the SOS-110: Critical Information Literacy.  So a total 6 credits.

How do you only have 1 capstone?

BA comp sci: Liberal Arts Capstone LIB 495

BSBA Finance: Business Capstone BUS 421

They are two different capstones. Which would put you at 9 credits and most likely two terms and a 2021 graduation.

It all depends if you get financial aid or not if you want to consider 16 credits:

If you get financial aid (scholarships, pell grant, etc.): at least consider adding 7 more credits to total 16 for huge savings vs 9 and wavier fee (at least $1500)

If you don't get financial aid: just do the wavier fee and only do 9 credits at TESU. (maybe edited to calculate cost is about $700 more to do waiver vs 16)


EDIT: actually the savings could be more than I thought it all depends on if you can find the last UL finance for cheap. But even did for cheap, doing 16 credits at tesu vs 9 and wavier would actually be like $700 more. That is because you have to factor in the $170 for coopersmith (150 + transcript) as the UL for comp sci and say you find something for finance for only $100. Add that to do $500 savings it is about $700. And that is only if you can find UL finance for cheap otherwise the savings could be even more. But your choice, either way if you want to pay more I don't care. I just wanted you to be informed of everything.
