Modern States + Uopeople = Least expensive RA Bachelor's??
#7
(09-21-2025, 02:26 PM)Jonathan Whatley Wrote: For the UoP Computer Science and Health Science majors there are far more than 10 required courses in each major that have no corresponding CLEP.

For the UoP BS in Business Administration, these likely each have a corresponding CLEP
  • BUS 1101 Principles of Business Management
  • BUS 1102 Basic Accounting (my guess is CLEP Financial Accounting would go here)
  • BUS 1103 Microeconomics
  • BUS 1104 Macroeconomics
  • BUS 2201 Principles of Marketing
this might (there’s a CLEP Introductory Business Law, but it’s typically counted as lower-level)
  • BUS 3305 Business Law and Ethics
and these don’t appear to
  • COM 2001 Professional Communication
  • BUS 2202 E-Commerce
  • BUS 2203 Principles of Finance 1
  • BUS 2204 Personal Finance
  • BUS 2207 Multinational Management
  • BUS 3303 Entrepreneurship 1
  • BUS 3306 Business and Society
  • BUS 4402 Organizational Behavior
  • BUS 4403 Business Policy and Strategy
  • BUS 4405 Leadership
  • BUS 4406 Quality Management
and five business electives; UoPeople’s available business electives are
  • BUS 2204 Personal Finance
  • BUS 3301 Financial Accounting
  • BUS 3302 Consumer Behavior
  • BUS 3304 Managerial Accounting
  • BUS 4401 Entrepreneurship 2
  • BUS 4404 Principles of Finance 2
  • BUS 4407 Strategic Management
There’s a rumor UoPeople is working on a bachelor’s in liberal studies, and that might be friendlier to the scenario of 90 credits in scattered subjects by CLEP plus the minimum 10 for residency.

Thank you. This was what I was interested in figuring out. I see that maybe some of Saylor's ACE courses could also plug up a few holes, or at least could be used as electives. 

When I have a bit more time, I want to put a spreadsheet together and figure out the least expensive way to complete a UoPeople degree. Out of curiosity and to share with others.
