Can't have too many from same place so I can't keep going with Penn Foster. It will have to be a combo.
So this Insurance class is free and it's not Proctored? :hurray:
Found the beginners link. Looking over info.

Sorry for multiple replys it's delayed. When I see the posts.
Yes multiple places to get to 120 credits.
I will go one by one.
Going to get my transcripts over to TESU while I take the Ins class. This will give me an idea what they will take. I hope they send a comprehensive list. This way I can compare to what they need and what I can get.

The eval from TESU will show the different areas where you need courses, it's not the easiest thing in the world to read. But, no, you won't get a comprehensive list of courses you can take.
Read the forum for a few weeks, the Beginners Guide, and then look at the TESU degree you want, as well as Sanantone's list of courses you can take for each area. That's the best way to do this.
Trying to jump in and start taking courses/exams, without really understanding the requirements of the degree, as well as which courses fulfill those requirements and how to take those courses, makes it much more difficult.

Sent ACE transcript to TESU and in process of sending from my old university with 1 class (3 credits).
Let's see what TESU has to say. Also working on Ethics from Institutes.
Once I have the feedback from TESU I will see what classes to continue with.
Still hardest thing for me is to map out what I need. Let's see what eval says and with advisor and your help I hope to zero in on what's needed.
Thank you all for your help. Specially bjcheung77 & dfrecore

I don't think you need to do all the modules and read through everything in the ethics course, just do the exam in one window and have the course material in another window. I finished it after two tests, as I missed the mark by 2 the first try, I had 68. Second try, I had 80. You just need a 70 to pass.

Sounds good. Thanks for your help. I will have it done very soon (some modules are interesting). Next step Aleks if I can get a confirmation from TESU that I need more math classes.

Done with Ethics. Waiting on TESU to look over transcripts so I can see what I need. Hoping to get something soon.

Don't hold your breath - it will probably be the full 5 weeks, unfortunately. I swear, they hold your app and transcripts and do your eval the night before the 5-week timeframe is up. Not kidding, the last 2 evals I've had have all been done on the 25th business day exactly. Not a single day sooner, even though I was only transferring over 1 course from a CC the first time (and they received it electronically in 2 days) and the other from ACE (and they received that one in 1 day). There is no way they could have taken more than 5 minutes to evaluate and transfer over the courses. With 4 of the courses, they already had them in their system (ALEKS College Algebra, Insurance Ethics, Sophia's Project Management, and Kaplan PLA course). With the CC course, it was a requirement for my degree, and the exact course (Organizational Theory for the BSBA HR degree). No, they sit on them and wait the full number of days posted on the website, I am positive.
Ok, rant over! Thanks for listening. :-P

Dino,
What is your ultimate goal? Your planning should be based on that, not only some perceived speed or cost savings (although important). Way too many people on here take some fast/easy route to find out later that a grad school or an employer didn't like all the PF, SL classes on their transcripts. It can save you a lot of time and headache if you plan in advance. WGU and Patton are not your only options for graduate. And for that matter, TESU, COSC, Excelsior are not your only options for undergrad.

Don't waste time by trying to save time. The only sure way to complete your degree is to knock out credits quickly and efficiently.
Don't let easiness bite you in the rear. Know your endgame (where you want to be) and plan backward from there. Your education is a means to an end.
Be honest professionally, socially and academically. There are people (especially little ones) who look up to you and they're going by your example.
Be proud. Whether you're an Engineer or Fast Food worker, there is honor and dignity in hard work.
Picking on people weaker than you only proves that you are a weak person.
