I've been going through posts for awhile now on here and Reddit, so I've been calculating how I can afford BA Graphic Design and Media Art at SNHU as an international student learning online and paying out-of-pocket and it seems like I might have calculated incorrectly.
I've read how many have transferred credits as much as 90 from Sophia, Straighterline and Study etc.
I had planned to do the same. I was so focused on GeneralEd and the 42 credits that I need and the 30 electives, that I did not notice the 36 credits for the major and 12 credits for a concentration.
Only one major is available on Sophia.
The total that I'll end up having to spend at SNHU now comes up to about $15K. It seems like the max I could get from credit transfer would be 75 since I would need to complete the major and the concentration. I thought it was possible to only have to spend 30 credits at SNHU but 45 credits is really costly.
There is no other way around this I suppose, is there?
