Recommendation on which TESU Business Degree to get?
#1
Hello,
I posted a while back and got some good info! I got a pierpont degree and am presently working on the 'Computer Science BSBA CIS Double Degree Plan' that was recommended. https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Sa...egree_Plan

When the guide was written, the plan was that you would get a 'Bachelor of Arts in Computer Science', and a 'Bachelor of Science in Business Administration In Computer Information Systems'. However, TESU has since changed it so the second degree is now a 'Bachelor of Science in Computer Information Systems'; the 'Business Administration' part is no longer mentioned. 

I'm really liking the idea of having one degree that is ostensibly for computer science and one that is for business (even though the second one still has business classes, the name doesn't state it), instead of having a BA and a BS that both say they are for computer stuff.

The guide says:


Quote:The concentrations that are under BSBA are now Accounting, Finance, Human Resources, Marketing, and Operations Management.

The concentrations that used to be Business Administration degrees and are now BS degrees are Entrepreneurship, General Management, International Business, and CIS.


If I want a degree that is ostensibly business, any recommendations on which I should get? I feel the most useful are:

1: Finance 2. Entrepreneurship. 3. Accounting.

But I wanted to hear if you guys had any advice, and also if there might be any specific guides for the ones you recommend.

Thanks

Great work in getting the Pierpont BOG AAS as a stepping stone to your bachelors! Good follow up post and thread with info, but it's missing all the info from your previous thread, we don't know what you've completed after the BOG AAS.

For reference (and for readers to review your details), your previous thread, and my recommendations then: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-...-completed

Having said that, I'm more inclined to get you to follow this instead, but UMPI BAS instead of BBA as the first bachelors degree, then the rest remains the same as mapped out: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-...-best-path

As BJ always recommends, filling out the addendum can be quite useful to us in aiding you. If you are an NJ resident, Thomas Edison can be a great option with the NJ Promise.

What do you want to do with the business degree?
BSBA/Accounting TESU (2016). MSA UIUC (2018).

Need help with portfolios? I earned 18 credits at TESU through portfolio evaluations. Nine of those were for upper level accounting courses. My advice for PLA/portfolios: TESU portfolio tips The first post has the Portfolio Checklist I created. Page ten has the actual narrative I wrote to receive credit for ACC-440.

Using Straighterline's Financial Accounting as a substitute for TESU's Intermediate Accounting I? Don't do it if you are an accounting major and/or want your CPA license. They are not the same course and I think TESU has erred in accepting the SL course as Intermediate I. I made this discovery here: Intermediate Accounting II.
