What does a college diploma from COSC look like?
#12
As others have mentioned the COSC diploma simply states "bachelor of science" or "bachelor of arts." I'm not really sure that this matter as how many employers physically want to see the diploma. My younger bro graduated from COSC years ago and has always put the following on his resume: Bachelor of Science, Business Administration. He's never had issues and is now working on his doctorate.

Regarding the question about graduate schools: If you're getting most of your credits through CLEP and DSST, it's considered non-traditional. Your grad school would be much more likely to have issues with too many test credits rather than the actual degree conferred. Most of the grad programs I've looked at list pre-requisite courses for their master, so for example, my MBA program does not require that you are a business major to be accepted. However, they do require that you have taken finance, accounting I and II and macro/microeconomics. They're ok with testing out of these classes, so hopefully I won't have problems getting accepted.

I do really like COSC as I've mentioned in other posts. It's nice that the business concentration doesn't require pre-calc like TESC does. They do want you to take a cornerstone and a capstone class, but the more experience I'm getting in my capstone, the more I think that this is a good idea. I really do think you should have some online class experience before paying tons of money to grad school. If I need to make mistakes and struggle through an online format, which can be different at first, I would much rather make those mistakes at the undergrad level for $300 a credit than at the graduate level for $900 a credit lol.
