I'm working towards getting a BSBA in Entrepreneurship with TESC using mostly accreditation through exams - CLEP/DANTE. But I'm kinda flying blind at the moment since I can't say for certain whether the exams that I'm taking will satisfy the requirements for the degree that I want.
My question is whether anybody here might at least have some information on what exams TESC accepts towards a BSBA in Entrepreneurship.
I've created my own academic program detailing the exams that I think might satisfy TESC's
degree requirements. But I'm really mostly basing my decisions on how close the name of the exam matches the name of the subject on TESC's credit distribution list
In this situation ignorance is not bliss. I really would feel much better knowing that the exams I'm taking will be accepted towards my degree, especially since I'm looking to take 87 credits worth of exams.
And since TESC will not advise me on whether my customized academic program is good enough for them unless they first get a nice junk of change from me, I'm turning to this great community for help.
Any help is greatly appreciated. If anyone would like to review and give any advice on the academic program that I made for myself, please let me know. I'd be happy to share it

I'm in a similar place - 36 credits currently, hopefully 75 by Sept, planning to transfer all to TESC. I was fortuate to get someone on the phone who might have been ingorant to company policy, and stumbled along customizing my degree plan.

unfortuantly, ensuing calls would not get me anywhere. I had to call and ask- would you accept so and so for so and so?
People on this forum have been great - I wish I could find someone who has been through the BS in Organizational Leadership, but someone with a BSBA has been close.
Best of luck. I'd try continued calls and piece it together.

Thanks for the information, Jack. I'll do some calling around and see if I can get lucky like you did
Is there anyone else who might have some helpful information for a tragic soul like myself?
