Associate in Science - which online college offers less credit to graduate

Hi Team,

I have credits around 45 and would like to know which online college offers minimum credits to graduate.

I believe , one require 6 credits to graduate from charter oak state college.

Please advise

Thanks

 

Good morning. If I'm interpreting your question correctly, you'd like to know of colleges which will allow you to graduate without taking another course. Every college that I've ever heard of requires at least 60 credit hours for an associates degree. If you're good at testing (CLEP, DSST, etc.), you'd be able to test out of a degree from Thomas Edison State College (TESC) without taking another college course.

 

Excelsior requires 3 or 4 semester units (depending upon your existing credits) to be completed through them.

With all of the big three you must meet all of their requirements and course distributions.

For an AA or AS degree you need 60 semester units.

 

and what about other accredited online colleges , including charter oak ?

 

For the Associates degree Charter Oak only requires the cornerstone to be taken at COSC, everything else can be imported....you will have to meet the gen ed requirements.

Charter Oak State College - General Education Requirements
Charter Oak State College - Completing Your Degree

TESC doesnt require anything to be taken at TESC, everything can be brought in. again, you have to meet the gen eds and other requirements.

Thomas Edison State College: Associate in Arts

What are your studies in? an AS usually has an emphases and it makes a difference on exactly what is required...perhaps the quickest and easiest degree is the AAS in Environmental Safety and Security at TESC You can use free FEMA credits for the concentration and free electives meaning you only have to bring in 21-28 or so gen ed credits. Thomas Edison State College: Environmental, Safety & Security Technologies

depends really on what your trying to do....any AS/AA will be a total of 60 credits minimal.

 

Do you have 45 semester-system credits or 45 quarter-system credits? Community colleges that use quarter-system credits usually require only 45.
