Guidance on Excelsior
#4
(04-24-2020, 02:40 PM)SJKBAE Wrote: I've been reading through so many threads and you all are so helpful! I got my Associates in Human Services from Columbia College back in 2013. I've always wanted to finish my Bachelors. Ultimately I want to be a social worker but online social work degrees are so hard to come by. Plus I don't have $60k and I have three small children which makes in seat too tough. I found that Excelsior has a Bachelors in Social Science with a concentration in Human Services. Has anyone pursued that degree? 

Right now I'm working on all the Sophia courses while they'e free. I have 10 total ACE credits and then 60.2 from Columbia. I realized that many of the courses I took for my AA were 300 level so I'm hoping that will satisfy that requirement. What are the other Sophia type places you have used?

So, thoughts on Excelsior? Thoughts on the Social Science program? Any other ideas for online that aren't Psych degrees?

Thanks so much!
