Hello, After many years, I would like to finish my degree. I am thinking I would would go to TESC, but certainly open to other thoughts. Back in the day, I attended a State University and hoping to transfer the following Composition (Eng 101) Intro to Western Civilization (HST 101) Basic Concepts Math Introductory Sociology Introductory Spanish Composition and LIT (Eng 102) Basic Concepts Math II Introductory Psychology History of Western Art Introductory Spanish II Biological Science Macroeconomics US History The US and World Problems Fundamentals of Accounting I Biological Science II Microeconomics Finite Mathematics American National Government Intro to Data Processing Fiction Public Communication Fundamentals Of Accounting II Probability and Statistics Marketing Principles of Management Social Psychology Can someone help me with a degree plan? I am not sure how these might fulfill the TESC requirements since the categories seem so different. Any thoughts or guidance would be very appreciated. I would like to get the BS in Finance or Accounting. Thanks, AH
I would recommend COSC or TESU for a business degree now that Excelsior has a six-credit capstone. If you join a partner organization, it will reduce the costs at Excelsior. I don't remember all of COSC's business specializations, but TESU has BSBA programs in finance and accounting. Accounting will be more flexible and cheaper. I will have to give you a plan later. If you go to Degreeforum.net, though, dfrecore can put together a plan for you rather quickly. That's the best forum to go to for the Big Three and competency-based programs.
I copied dfrecore's plan into my Beginners Guide (Sticky) - see link below http://www.degreeinfo.com/general-distance-learning-discussions/52647-beginners-guide-getting-cheap-fast-college-credit.html Furthermore, you can review the info on the degreeforum.wikia.com webpage, my guide is also there (shorter version). The Basic Approach - Degree Forum Wiki - Wikia It's an awesome resource and you get to review two spreadsheets dfrecore has created, BSBA General Management and CIS Another resource is Sanantone's General Education Options and also BSBA degree plans on degreeforum.wikia.com
Didn't know they required a six-credit capstone now. That's a bit much, I think. Excelsior courses are crazy-expensive these days. Excelsior keeps getting worse and worse, in my opinion. I graduated from Excelsior, but I would recommend COSC or TESU over it these days.
Thanks for the comments and help. Do you see anything in my list that you think would fulfill the Quantitative Literacy, Information Literacy, Diversity and Ethics requirements? Is there a guide to common equivalents somewhere that I am missing?
