Hey guys!
So I was putting my degree plan together (TESU BSBA-CIS) and found out that basically the only option for some courses according to wiki page is CSU Global CBE, the exams I want to take are:
1)Ethical Hacking and Penetration TestingITS425EX (3 credits) (to satisfy C: CIS Electives)
Information Systems Analysis and Design
2)MIS350EX (3 credits) (to satisfy B: Systs Analy/Dsgn)
Does anybody have any experience with them? I did not understand how to register for them or pay or anything at all. Please do tell if you know anything at all.

TESU told me that ethical hacking would not count. The ones they told me would count are information systems analysis and design, cloud computing, database management, principals of cybersecurity, and digital marketing. I was able to use basic programming, but some were told that they couldn't.

Thanks! I contacted TESU today, let's see what they will say, if they in fact reject ethical hacking I'll try the others you suggested. That's super helpful. However, would you tell me a bit about the process itself? Do I have to contact the school (CSU) first or is there a magic button I did not see? And like how is the process itself? People do not really mention in detail apart from saying they liked it.

I had a thread detailing the process, but it's probably difficult to find since it's on the old forum. You apply to CSU Global as a non-degree-seeking student. If you contact admissions, they'll likely give you a code to waive the application fee. You'll be assigned an advisor who you can ask to add you to a CBE. Then, you study for the CBE at your own pace. A lot of the information you need is available for free in the course shell they'll put you in. There will also be a recommended textbook. I didn't use a textbook for most of the exams I took, but some people may need to use one. Once you feel that you're ready to test, you pay the $250 fee and schedule your exam through their online proctoring service.

Thank you so much! I was kinda confused and did not want to apply since I'm not going to become their student, but what you said totally makes sense. Honestly, you saved me once again (first with your degree plan and now with this awesome post!)
