Dang I made this thread like 4 years ago... could have graduated sooner... but I'm finally in with TESU and sent a check from Amazon to them. I'm going to major in Finance, I was told to graduate faster with a liberal arts degree but idk what that could get me if I was looking for jobs. Wish me luck guys, thank you for everything!

This is way in the future and probably won’t help you now. BUT. I went into Study thinking it would be like Sophia, waiting for a couple days to get assignments graded. No. So far, every assignment has been graded day-of, and one was graded in 30 minutes. On my 5th course and my(not everyone’s) direction has been to read each chapter once through and take the chapter test. Doesn’t matter the grade, keep moving, I can come back 2 more times. Do this for all chapters. I brush up a bit and then take the final. Again, score doesn’t matter right now. Work on all assignments for course, submit all, start a new course while I wait for my grades. If I pass(every time so far) I don’t have to go back and re-take anything. Rinse. Repeat. Unless the information is very important to your studies. Then DO THE BEST YOU CAN!

Great stuff! Congrats on completing the degree! Just one question, how many classes did you take at TESU in total?

Technically, it's a business degree with a finance area of study (another term for concentration, focus, emphasis, minor, etc). There are so many different ways other institutions name these, it all means the same thing, 18 credits or so in that field of study.

Great stuff!  Congrats on completing the degree!  Just one question, how many classes did you take at TESU in total? I took 2 classes. I have to pay the residency fee of like $3600+

Oh so it's just a Business admin degree? So if I get a MS in the same thing wouldn't it overlap? What's the difference?
