Texas A&M University-Commerce competency based degree

Yeah, you really don’t need a second degree to prepare for your Master’s. Start with those Clackamas APA courses, move on to ONU’s English and History courses for $150 a pop, and then hit up BYU, if you feel the need.

You’ll have a great re-introduction to the writing process and you will have done it on your own time without having to spend a bundle.

And it’s all graded RA credit, if you need to use it.

Can you point me toward the Clackamas APA courses?  I tried to find it myself, but kept going in circles.

Officially, TAMU Commerce is requiring US History I and Ii and Texas Government/Political Science in addition to the 30 major credits. This was prior to official transcript evaluations. I pointed out I already had us history I and Ii through Sophia and they said "I'm sure you'll get credit when we finish evaluating your transcripts," and waived those. I still need Texas Government/polisci. So it'll be 11 classes/33 credits.

Seem to be no other hiccups.

But for now I'm very much leaning against doing the program as I just think I won't have time due to increased work commitments/potential promotion.

That’s pretty much what I found too.  I emailed them and was told that the Sophia History classes ARE approved to cover the history classes.  I have US History 2 covered, but I would need US History 1.  I also have the US Government class covered.  I think it is on my short list of potential options.
