    I have decided I want to get my bachelors at Excelsior. I plan on attending the Bachelors of Professional Studies in Technology Management degree. I need 37 more credit to complete. Here is what I need if anyone can recommend classes that I can take elsewhere for the credit. Places such as study, straighterline, uexcel and such. I was planning on attending TESU but Excelsior can potentially work out better. Here's what I need.

    Have you already registered with Excelsior and had your evaluation done?

    The reason I ask, if you are estimating that you only need 37 more credits I would say just go ahead and register.

    I can understand why some who needs 100 plus credits might delay registering and just try to take bunch of exams first {trying to avoid having to pay year 2 fees}, but if you are reasonably close just dive in.

    If it takes 1 month or 364 days to complete your degree, it costs the same. Completing 37 credits in 1 year, I assume, is totally doable. And if you miscalculated and need 50 credits , that’s still less than 2 exams per month.

    Get your evaluation done, get your official degree plan, know for sure which exams will satisfy you requirements.

    Yes, I have applied and had an evaluation. I messed up earlier I meant 38 credits not 37 to go. I haven't registered because I wasn't sure if I could save some money and knock out some of my classes elsewhere.

    Got it! Basically, you are looking for the most efficient (easiest) ways to satisfy your requirements. I’m sure somewhere on this forum you can find reviews of the exams that will fulfill these. Anyone?
