Second question - do the degrees meet the military four year degree requirement?
UVU game me credit for, CRM, high altitude and work experience, along with my ATP. It think it shaved off about 4-5 classes.

I'm taking 4 classes. Tuition was $4700 for this semester, not including books. They will give me 30 hours for my experience. Honestly, the charge for out of state tuition wipes out anything I save by the 30 credit hours.

Does anyone know if ASU (Arizona State University) gives credit for prior ratings earned? Or do you HAVE to get all your ratings/certs through their program for credit?

Is this online, traditional or both?

The higher learning commision only accredits schools in the midwest.

That seems really high. When I went UVU (Which is not long ago), each 3 credit class was about $550-$750 (Out of state). That's for general courses and aviation. You may want to talk to your advisor (Theo). You may have selected the wrong class, such as PHIL. There's 2050 205H and 205G, they all have different cost, but it's the same class.

TESU is accredited by Middle States Commission, one of the 6 regional accrediting association recognized by the US Dept of Ed. Good to go for military.

Auburn offers credit for any advanced rating. Best aviation school around IMO. Can't have a better experience.
