The alternative credit courses were handpicked using experience from previous students as to what courses will be the easiest and quickest courses to take. In places with multiple courses listed, the first course is assumed to be the fastest/easiest course to take.
===Taking Alt Credit Courses Not on a Equivalency List===
If you want to take courses from [[Study.com]] for example, it is best to get those courses approved before taking them.  Contact the SNHU advisor to get courses approved.
===Tips on Order in Which to Complete Courses===
Start with [[Sophia.org]], do English Composition first. Unfortunately, Sophia only allows 2 courses open at one time, so after you start English Comp, do a course that doesn't have any touchstones (written assignments). Once done with Sophia, start doing other alternative credit courses.


===How Long Will It Take To Complete This Degree Once I Finish All the Alterative Credits?===
=== Why get a degree from this college? ===
Full time is 2 courses per 2 month term at SNHU.  At that rate, it would take 10 months to do 30 credits worth of courses.   
 
* If you want a degree with decent brand name
* If you are local to the east coast
* To take advantage of large amount of credits given to certifications
 
===What's the process for getting a degree?===
 
# Do RA credit (24 credits required)
# Do ALT credits
# Do certifications
# Enroll and finish remaining credits (Must do at least 15 credits at CUNY SPS)
