Colorado State University - Pueblo

Just know that it is a branch campus in the CSU system. Have you looked at CSU Global Campus? They have a decent assortment of degrees available for DL students.

 

...and don't forget the flagship university, Colorado State University, Fort Collins. They have a few DL undergraduate and many graduate degrees as well.

CSU Pueblo is actually an independently accredited university.

 

I am taking their Operations Management class right now and I am loving it. Customer service is tops. Independent study format is fabulous.

I agree their degrees look exciting. I think the main reasons I ruled them out for my BS were:

1. I had already taken more CLEP exams than they will accept (or more total transfer credit, forget which).
2. They have/had a foreign language requirement for some of the degrees I was looking at.
3. Their business major didn't offer an MIS concentration.

In addition CSU Pueblo would make a great option for anyone looking for a few courses to round out their Big 3 degree.

I thought it might be something like 30 hours. I did consider getting a second BS at Excelsior using the Psych GRE and a handful of CSU's Sociology courses, but discussion here convinced me to put aside the idea of a second BS.

One could also fill out an Operations Management concentration at EC with classes from CSU. I gave that some thought before settling on MIS.

I actually thought about doing their BS in Sociology w Criminology emphasis just for fun… Their tuition is great ($448.50/class) and they have the COOLEST topics, like a class on Serial Murder and one on Forensic-Medico Investigation. So it’s roughly $4500 to finish, since you have to do 30 cr in-residence at CSU-Pueblo. It’s a good way to delay student loan payments by paying OOP, for those who are so inclined. You do need 6 cr of foreign language though (which is fine, because I can test out of French or Serbian, if they offered it).

Just one of those "for my own enrichment" thingies, just like the Aspen MA in Psychology of Addiction and Counseling degree ($4500 also) and Weber State's Bachelor of Individualized Studies in Nutrition Education and Health Promotion (about $6500-ish). If I had unlimited funds, which I do not

 

If I were to finish all of the degrees on my "want list" it would cost me $76,600 (incl. my BA that I already finished)! I guess CSU doesn't sound so bad now lol
