Charter Oak versus Excelsior (fastest and lowest cost to BLA and recommended route)
#15
The sociology doesn't help you much, if your ready and the money isn't tight I might take it...but you don't NEED it. DSST aren't really much different than CLEP. Do the DSST Business Ethics....its upper level. Also start ALEKS College Algebra and plan to do the DSST Human Cultural Geography. pretty good study guide and prep over at freeclepprep.com and, of course, via the flashcards and feedback forum available to paid members here at IC.........

The next COSC semester starts in like 4 weeks...while you knock out the above you need to get signed up with them, work out the consortium agreement, and pick your three extra courses at CSU-P (or wherever).

Do the FEMA as you have time. Anything that indicates college credit should be fine. If its marked that indicates FCC has reviewed it and that's the recommendation COSC follows...

Cornerstone once...you need to register seeking a Bachelors, and just let them know you want to pick up your AA on the way (cost $200 but I think its worthwhile, your gonna be doing all the work for one anyway).

Capstone is the second COSC required course....other than those two, corner and capstone, there isn't anything else that has to be taken at COSC...everything else can be earned elsewhere.

Be careful picking CSU-Pueblo courses. Try to get input from an adviser at COSC, you don't want to waste time or money that won't count towards the degree. Also download the course catalog, read through and be sure how your chosen courses are structured. I never needed a proctor in any CSU-P courses because I carefully selected courses that didn't require tests.

I'm always happy to complete the free application waiver for those applying to WGU (I get a free gift from WGU for this).  Just PM me your first/last name and a valid email so I can complete their form.
