yeah, but if someone paid for 60 credits to transfer in and 30 credits of exam then the degree isn't really $2,250
When we discuss the costs of degrees on this forum, it's generally the COST TO COMPLETE YOUR DEGREE. If you are someone that has credits already, the fact that you already paid for them is a moot point - it's a sunk cost. We are generally looking for each individual's future costs, not what they've already paid.
All costs are part of the completion of a degree though. Past money spent doesn't just disappear. It's still apart of how much your degree cost you. The $2.250 above would be an additional cost. That's also assuming that one only has 30 credits to complete which usually is not the case as we have seen from numerous people on here transfer to various colleges.
