Thanks for the quick follow up, but the program I signed up for is not listed on the CFA site.

Just to add some nuance to the whole thing. Has any one taken TESU’s BS Organizational Leadership, or their BS BA in General Management? If so where can I find the actual course numbers to see how many of the classes can be taken via CLEP or DSST? I’m trying to see if it would make sense starting from scratch with no credits and doing one of these two programs, or go with COSC (as soon as they let me know if they will accept my ITT credits, or SNHU. I’m thinking that it might be possible to still finish in a year if I went with one of Aforementioned TESU programs even if I start with zero credits.
Any thoughts?

Thanks

Several people on this forum have definitely completed a TESU BSBA GM. Honestly, I wouldn't try to start from scratch at tesu if COSC or excelsior accept 60+ of your credits.

I don't know much about SNHU so can't answer your questions there but if you're going for speed then I'd avoid having to do 30 credits at SNHU with your busy schedule.

This is exactly what I would recommend, if COSC/EC takes those credits from ITT, you're golden, the time to finish at COSC/EC would be much much faster. In fact, the majority of the courses are the same with the exemption of the capstone/cornerstones. I would wait for COSC/EC to get back with you before jumping to TESU at this point.

Thanks. I'll wait to hear back from COSC.

Hi, OP. Sorry, I'm late to the party. I'm currently at SNHU as a Communications major, and used 72 credits from CLEP and DSST exams toward my degree. If you have any SNHU-specific questions, feel free to hit me up.

Hi Greencouch - I sent you a PM a couple days ago.

Update: I just heard back from COSC...my ITT transcript didn't yield any credits. Sad
I'm waiting on Excelsior to see if I have any luck there. At this point I'm debating if I should even order and send my transcripts to TESU seeing that COSC which I heard was a little more lenient than TESU didn't count any of my previous credits...

That's really unfortunate, I'm sorry. Yeah if COSC didn't take them then I doubt TESU will.
