Options for 16 Credits to Rid of Residency Waiver Fee
#23

1) Do math courses at West Texas A&M/APU to fulfill the rest of my math math UL.

2) Learn Cal 3, review world art from Sophia and begin writing some of the Capstone research paper prior (i want to do that as I'd like to see how i like research). 

3) Start a term in TESU, take an easy to pass course from Wiki , use course extensions where I need (maybe on the capstone..): 
  • 3cr - ART 100-World of art (did sophia art I & II but forgot most) (TESU)
  • 3cr - GOG 230 Wold Geography (have got some relevant doc from before to get me started) (TESU)
  • 3cr - MAT 331 Cal 3 (TESU)
  • 3cr - SOS 101info literacy (TESU)
  • 3cr - LIB 495 Capstone (TESU)
  • 1cr- PLA 100 prior learning (TESU)

Thanks for the link @bhcheung77. I saw that link that advocates for two separate degrees, BA CS & BSBA CSI, while I think it's a good low effort segue way -which I may consider once I finish the BA CS/Math requirements - my focus is to get into Gtech/UoTA at the moment and hope that the math will give me some advantage since my work experience is lacking.

To do that, my plan was to clear out most of the UL math before the term, from non-TESU schools.
After that, pre-learn Cal 3 + start some writing/research on my capstone.
Then.. will I do a single three month term with 16 credits  (see quoted post above). I know you generally don't recommend it, would you say the same if I can spare 1 or 2 extra days per week from work and two weeks off? Is it at least feasible?..
