Thanks a lot! One of those colleges might be exactly what I need. I'm not sure yet.
I should have given Excelsior a closer look before, it seems they might be more flexible with their Math degree compared to TESC.
This is from the Excelsior website:
Choose A Major
You may demonstrate expertise in a particular subject area. Each of the majors requires a minimum of 30 credits (15 upper-level) in one the following disciplines: (Mathematics is one of them)
I have 32 credits in Mathematics and 21 of them are upper level. So it seems I would be ok here (at Excelsior).
But at TESC, I have to have 18 upper level credits of Math Electives, but Calculus I, II, and III dont count as well as Linear Algebra, and Statistics because they all fill other requirements for those specific classes. Cut those 5 upper level classes out and I only have approximately 8 of the required 18 upper level electives.
I'm only assuming those classes would count towards my 15 upper level credits at Excelsior because I don't know if they would use them to fill other requirements in their core program or not, I haven't been able to access that PDF from the site because it says I have to download an adobe acrobat plugin which is 22 mb and I live in the middle of nowhere on dialup. I have the adobe reader so it would have been nice if I could have just downloaded the PDF which probably would have been pretty small.
Thanks again! There are a lot of things for me to consider about which way I should go!
