High Schooler Options - BSBA / BABA

[bjcheung77]

Excelsior is a great option for the Bachelors, if you're adding the Associates to the degree, I think it's a bit too much as they charge for an associates capstone. Some colleges/universities don't have Associates capstone course requirements, TESU has some Associates that do have capstones, some associates at TESU don't, UMPI does not if I recall correctly. I usually recommend getting the associates at the institution if it doesn't take any extra energy, money, time to get them. The Associates at TESU/UMPI for example, are free on route to their respective Bachelors counterpart...

What you should do is create a spreadsheet of the Excelsior BSLA or BSBA requirements by using the requirements on their catalog or webpage. You'll know what courses you require and then select alternative credit, plus your community college credits, this way you won't be taking any extra courses when her dual enrollment starts, you'll also have your ACE, NCCRS, alternative credits lined up to the requirements, you'll just then need to go through it - provider by provider until it's complete. I agree, too much to think about, skip the Associates for now, get that spreadsheet done and link us to it.
