Question for my 17 year old
#2
First off, what degree does your daughter want? A BALS is okay, but there are more subject degrees available now than there were when you got your degree in 2018. If she wants something specific, that'll dictate which school might be best.

UMPI is more popular/affordable than any of the Big3 right now, but you must be at least 20 years old to get a UMPI degree. TESU and COSC both require at least 30 RA credits (the capstone and cornerstone count for 6, so your daughter would need at least 9 more RA credits). COSC is not really recommended for most students.

Excelsior is slightly cheaper than TESU, but they do require at least 30 UL credits. Not everyone wants to do that, so TESU's 18 UL total (15 + capstone) can be more attractive. There are suggested degree plans for TESU here: https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Sa...ts_Roadmap

For LL courses, we usually recommend Sophia because it's now $79/mo. for all-you-can-complete. Except, don't take Sopha's English Comp. If your daughter decides to go for TESU or COSC, we usually recommend ONU ( https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Ol...University ) for inexpensive RA credit. It's hard to beat $50/credit! Olivet also has some UL courses that can work for BALS, History, or English degrees.

SDC is usually recommended for UL ACE credit. For business degrees, Davar has NCCRS courses. Coopersmith has courses for Psych and a handful of other subjects.
In progress:
TESU - BA Computer Science; BSBA CIS; ASNSM Math & CS; ASBA

Completed:
Pierpont - AAS BOG
Sophia (so many), The Institutes (old), Study.com (5 courses)
ASU: Human Origins, Astronomy, Intro Health & Wellness, Western Civilization, Computer Appls & Info Technology, Intro Programming
Strayer: CIS175, CIS111, WRK100, MAT210
