Can anyone help me with a list of tests that would qualify for the Liberal Arts Upper Level requirements at TESC? I found out that Business courses do not qualify which is a bummer because I was hoping to use Principles of Management or Marketing. I'm going for the Liberal Studies BA.
I'm not very technical so I'm hoping not to do the science/math or too much computer tests. To be honest, I'm looking for the easiest tests possible to fulfill this requirement.
I found these Upper Level tests on the DSST site, but I'm not sure how difficult they are or if they would be a good option:
DSST Hereâs To Your Health (UL) 3
DSST Management Info Systems (UL) 3
DSST Fundamentals of Cybersecurity (UL) 3
DSST The Civil War and Reconstruction (UL) 3
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Not a lot to choose from:
CLEP - College-Level Exam Program
DANTES Note though the social sciences at the bottom such as Rise/Fall, Vietnam, Middle East, Substance Abuse, Org. Behavior, and even Money and Banking should be able to fit into a liberal studies degree.
Then again I'm certainly not the TESC expert around here.

I'm always happy to complete the free application waiver for those applying to WGU (I get a free gift from WGU for this). Just PM me your first/last name and a valid email so I can complete their form.

These were the courses I thought would apply for upper level credits when I was looking at a liberal arts degree. However, things may have changed since I compiled this list a year ago. You'll want to double check this. Hope this helps.
LIB 495 Liberal Arts Capstone TESC
ECO 332 Money & Banking DSST
*PSY 361 Organizational Behavior DSST
SOS 305 Substance Abuse DSST
REL 405 Introduction to World Religions DSST
COM 300 Managerial Bus. Communications Straigherline Course or Saylor 210
CIS 301 Management Information Systems DSST
*I believe at TESC the DSST exam for Organizational Behavior which is for UL credits can be translated as Psychology class (PSY 361) or a business management class (MAN 311).

OP, all you have to do is follow what is on those links. Anything that is natural science, social science, mathematics, or humanities can go in the area of study. Fundamentals of Counseling is still listed as COU-262 and under human services even though it is almost always transcribed as an UL PSY course. However, you have so many other options, there is really no reason to take a chance with that DSST. You only need 6 UL tests, and you have 10 DSSTs to choose from.
