Zzz - Obsolete Degree Plans/IrishJohn's BA in History
Overview[edit]
DegreeForum.net user IrishJohn used the below degree plan to complete a Bachelor of Arts degree in History from Thomas Edison State University in June of 2010. He used a mix of credits from a variety of sources: CLEP and DSST exams, US Navy (USN) experience via his Navy SMARTS transcript, courses from Northern Virginia Community College (NVCC), and ALEKS courses transferred via his ACE transcript.
NOTE: This BA in History was completed in 2010, which was before TESC implemented a change requiring 18 credits at the 300/400 level in the Area of Study and completion of the Liberal Arts capstone. Always check the latest requirements from TESC before making your own degree plan. See the degree plan template created taking the latest requirements into account.
WARNING: TESC HAS NEW GENERAL EDUCATION REQUIREMENTS.
