Charter Oak State College is one of the best colleges! I am enrolled in there Bachelors of Science in Psychology and love their curriculum! :) I wish I would have started my education here instead of a community college. They care and want you to succeed.

The good thing is that you can take up to 90 credits in 100 and 200-level classes. I started my coursework there and I finish my requirements for my degree in 3 years instead of 4. If you're a vet, this is ideal because you can take classes at a community college for free and you only have to pay for the matriculation fee.

Got a bachelor's degree very easilyquickly. Google degreeforum wikia to see ways to get a bachelor's in business through testing out of degree.2 required courses are money makers for the college, a joke, and just busy work (cornerstone and capstone course). Degree isn't worth a damn but at least it's regionally accredited & good for govt job prom.
