Hmmm, I don't remember reading that I could test out of the capstone at TESU, thank you, I think I may have to re-reseacrch!

Yup, the Strategic Management TECEP will satisfy the TESU BSBA requirement. Note that this is only for Business degrees. You mentioned you might be interested in psych, and if you go that route you'll have to do a normal capstone online course at TESU (and probably Ethics in the Social Sciences course as well -- there's not testout options for it and I haven't found a good alternative at any other schools).

Jsch, ALEKS College Algebra and Statistics will be a requirement for business degrees at both COSC and TESU, so you might want to consider signing up for ALEKS immediately and completing those courses. Their current ACE accreditation expires on January 31, 2017, and at the moment will not be renewed. If you finish on or before January 31, though, your credits will be good for either TESU or COSC. Search the forum for ways to efficiently complete those classes.

Well, my heart is in Human Resources, but I figured I could do a Psych or a Bus Bachelors the quickest and then concentrate on HR for Masters. I really don't know though, I just want the quickest, cheapest route for my Bachelors that will tie into a Master in HR.

Honestly, not familiar with Aleks. Is this a course you take and then you take a proctored test after?

Sounds like the BSBA in Human Resource Management at TESU might be a good choice for you then.

You can easily get a BSBA in HR at TESU, it's not a lost more than the BSBA in General Management.

Thank you. I see that is what you are persuing currently. Do you think you could help me in figuring out what classes I've taken already that will count towards that degree and what classes I'll still have to take? I'm trying to figure it out on my own, but I'm not too sure of myself. I'm not seeing exact matches with what I've taken and their gen Ed requirements. Should I apply soon or plan my degree course of action first?
