Which BSBA faster/cheaper - TESU vs Liberty

[dfrecore]

I see it when you go to the “whAt if” tool.
I’m sorry not on the aos but the professional requirements.

Never mind Bj. I figured it out. It looks like they moved my cis 107 to natural science requirement leaving a computers requirement open. Idk y they did that.

Just email them and ask them to move that course to your core.  They'll do it w/o any fuss.

I see what they’ve done. They moved my data structures from natural sciences down to electives.  Which in turn moved an elective to “anticipated earned “
Then moved my cis 107 from the computers requirement up to fill the natural sciences req. leaving the computers req open. 

So this in turn adds a requirement for me.

I wouldn't worry about moving stuff around. That seems pointless.

You should have a spreadsheet where you know what your requirements are, do those courses and everything should work itself out.

Not so.  You should ALWAYS ask the school to move things where you plan them, so that if there's some sort of issue, you know about it up front.  Leaving it as is leaves too much open to chance - the chance that they don't bring a course in that you thought, in the way you thought, or that they change something going forward, leaving you with courses to take that you didn't count on. Terrible idea.

Ask them to move CIS-107 to computers, and Data Structures back to science (it's a COS course which should work there).

If they won't for some reason, at least you can plan for what you need. But I don't think it will be an issue.

What I did was planned my courses with the TESU advisors. When you plan a course, they will add those courses to your degree plan before you take the courses.

This also confirms that any degree plans you are following are accurate and up to date. Or that you didn't get confused and pick the wrong course to take.

When you do that, your courses will go in the right spots after you complete them.

My accumulated credits are listed in my sig below.

Trying to choose between Thomas Edison and Liberty programs to best apply my existing credits, but cost is the other main factor.

1. Thomas Edison BSBA in Entrepreneurship, with Marketing Cert (can't find the info on the marketing cert, but I remember it from a previous search)

2. Thomas Edison BSBA in General Management with Marketing Cert, and Entrepreneurship Cert (is there an Entrepreneurship Cert?)

3. Liberty BSBA in Entrepreneurship (and a Marketing Cert, if they offer one)

I'm sure I'll have to grab a SDC membership to fill out some of the required courses, especially with TESU. No problem there. And I still need to take the CSM course/s for Quantitative Reasoning. 

How would my courses transfer in? What courses would remain for me to complete?

Also, I can't remember all of the fees and costs associated with TESU, and am worried it gets very expensive if there's a per semester fee, or some other cost that recurs every so often. I've never used FAFSA, so it's available to me. Don't remember if this helps with TESU or if there's some issue that prevents it

Main thing with Liberty is that I can transfer in 90 credits, but have to take all additional credits through them. I prefer the study and pass a test method of alt credits, but more importantly, the additional university courses add to cost.

Some folks on this forum are really knowledgeable about this stuff, and like taking the time to figure this out. So I appreciate any help here. This kind of technical stuff is tedious and overwhelming to me.

I'm on vacation and will check for and answer any replies each evening. 

Thanks.

I'm super late to this, but I'll put in my $0.02 and leave it be...

If you want a business degree fast and cheap (which your title implies) and basically hassle free, you'd probably want to go with WGU. If your focus is entrepreneurship then a general business degree is fine and you can add a low cost certification later. Your degree is not going to say "entrepreneurship" anyways. Any business degree you do will say the same thing. by the way, just for self knowledge, study dot com has fantastic courses on entrepreneurship, so does the sba dot gov (for free)

The bottom line... If you can get aid, UMPI BABA Marketing would probably be closest to free and it'll also be the cheapest, easiest, fastest option. It all depends on your current situation, if you have the energy, time to put into the work to get it done in a session or two. With aid, it would be an amazing deal if you can finish in the allotted time as I mentioned...

If you would like a general BABA, the UMPI has the Management and Leadership option which is "easiest" and easier than the Marketing concentration, at the end of the day, it's just a Business Administration degree such as the ones offered at TESU/Liberty, etc, it just has a concentration or minor in something...
