    I have a dilemma and i was wondering if anyone on this board could help me. I am D.man have a BS in Health Sciences from Touro University International and I am currently an MBA student at Liberty University. I am need to find a DETC or an RA accredited university that offers Managerial Economics, Accounting, and finance with at least a 12-14 week semester format. I had to withdraw from my current econ course at liberty because the 8 week format is way too fast for my lifestyle since I am the only person working full-time and my wife is an undergraduate student at a Cal state here in CA.

    The finance and accounting courses that I have had in mind of taking would be at Touro now called Trident University and they have 12 week formats and I do not think that I could handle taking both at the same time. My quantitative skills aren't that great but I am trying my best. I dropped my course at Liberty is because I have a 3.0 and I cannot afford to get another "C" in the class and go on academic suspension and lose my G.I. Bill funding. I plan on taking these courses and transferring them back to Liberty and finishing. If anybody can help please someone point me in the right direction. Thank you for your time and consideration in my time in need.:rant:

    As LU is ACBSP accredited as well do you know if they require transfer courses to hold similar accreditation?

    They accept DETC and RA credits.

    In that the courses you’re seeking are all graduate level, I’m certain you would be required to enroll in another university’s graduate degree program for access to the courses. There are many online options with even 15-week semester courses (e.g., in lock-step with traditional semesters); however, I’m uncertain whether a student would be allowed to simply enroll in for credit standalone classes (?). Of course as you know, you could 1) enroll in another university graduate degree program, 2) complete the needed courses, 3) transfer them to Liberty, and 4) then drop the other program.

    Not necessarily. Many universities offer the opportunity to take a class or two as a non-degree student at the grad level.

    That’s helpful information StefanM; perhaps you might not mind listing a few per the OPs inquiry.

    I know that the University of Memphis allows it, as I am going there now as a non-degree student.

    I can't think of any off of the top of my head, though, that would offer the courses he needs. That doesn't mean they don't exist; it's just out of my field, so I haven't had the incentive to research it.

    In that case, you can take single courses at Andrew Jackson University or the ever-popular-here Aspen University to transfer over. I'm contemplating that approach for ENMU when the time comes (yes, it'd be more expensive, I know, but I'm starting to become a connoiseur of DL thanks to all the hypnotism here).

    I finally enrolled at TUI for managerial accounting and finance. I am applying to Aspen U. to take managerial economics. I am was wondering if anyone can give me any feedback on those that have taken managerial econ at Aspen. How is the course work structured in the independent course? How much reading and what type of work is assigned? What level of mathematics is required to have to do the quantitative work in this course. Is there a lot of quantitative work in this course? Are there any proctored exams in this econ course? Is this course manageable for a full time worker? I would really appreciate as much info on how this course is structured, what type of work is assigned and math needed. I just want to know what I am getting myself into. I enrolled into Liberty's econ course and the eight week semester kicked my butt and the stats, quantitative work, reading, and assignments kicked my butt.

    Thank you
