This may be old news to some of you, but I just realized that the following Saylor courses have been ACE approved since December 2016: BUS206 Management Information Systems, CS101 Introduction to computer science I, CS102 Introduction to computer science II, CS302 Software Engineering, CS402 Computer Communications and Networking.
I wonder how they will come in at TESU. I bet the MIS will duplicate the DSST for some cheap UL credit. Software engineering also UL? Exciting.

A cheap alternative to the MIS credits is excellent news (assuming it comes in as CIS-301).
I'm also curious about that CS102 course's transfer equivalence.
I suspect (hope) the Software Engineering course comes in as CIS-351 (giving another cheap CS AOS elective).
The CS402 Computer Communications and Networking course appears to come in as CMP-354 already (so, NOT a CS AOS course). (source: Open Course Option)

Looks like CS101 is the only one missing form that list in the ACE link, but the rest are there. CS101 shows up on NCCRS ( Saylor Academy (The) | NCCRS), but I don't see it on ACE.

9 new courses (as of 12/1/16), they are all considered LL courses through ACE - we will have to see how TESU treats some of them.

The other courses show up under "Alternative Credit Project Ecosystem" as the Organization Name, and if you put Saylor as the Course/Exam Title as well, you will see them by themselves.

Could be a good option for BSBA CIS Majors
First off you have MIS which chances are will come in at UL
Also https://learn.saylor.org/course/bus303 Strategic Information Technology
Both of these should come up at upper level
CS401 Computer communications and networking might come up as AOS for CIS
that is potentially 3 UL = 9 credits
This looks like a pretty sexy plan for anyone to use.
Mandatory ( in the sense that you need a programming course, Pen Foster and CSU have courses) I choose Straighterline programming 4 credits LL
Mandatory CSU MIS 350 course System Analysis and Design 3 UL
Electives courses
Saylor MIS 3 UL ??????
Strategic Information Technology 3 UL????
Study.com Digital Marketing 3 UL
TEEX courses 6 Free
Cost for AOS
Study.com 200
Straighterline between 100-200 depending on coupons used
Saylor 25-75
Teex Free
CSU 250
