BSBA Roadmap review - Blackstar12 - 01-14-2018
Hi guys been a long time lurker (way back in 2013) first time poster I've been out of the game for a while but am now able to return but since I have been a way for a little while. I was wondering if anyone could give my Road map a quick review to see if its still relevant, or, if I need to make any changes, (yeah I know I only have 21 credits I'm planning to have that skyrocket in the next couple of months) if its any help I enrolled back in April 2017 so I could snag the Business admin TECEP before they ended it. Thanks for the help!

That looks like a workable template, but I would change a few things around, you're taking "expensive/harder/slower" courses.
Don't use Sophia, use SL for Environmental Science for much cheaper/easier/faster. For MIS, use Study.com or Saylor.org
For English Composition I & II, switch from StraighterLine to Study.com
For Oral Communications, take Study.com Presentation Skills for the workplace.
For International Business, take Study.com Business 120: International Management.
For your Area of Study, you may want to take a look at my Beginners Guide.
You can mix and match many, but this is what I recommend.
Your template is very close to the one I have in my dropbox in the Guide.
General Management Area of Specialization - $297
You must take at least 1 course in 3 out of the 4 areas (MAN, ACC, MAR, FIN)
18 credits required, minimum of 12 upper-level credits.
*Saylor - Corporate/Managerial Communications (UL) - $25 (Davar $85)
*Saylor - Management Information Systems (UL) - $25 (Davar $85)
Straighterline Intermediate Accounting I (Financial Accounting) - $59
Straighterline Managerial Accounting (UL, transcribed as Cost Accounting) - $59
Straighterline Organizational Behavior (UL) - $59
Study.com Digital Marketing & Advertising (UL) - $70

You need to take another TECEP in order to maintain your enrollment since it's almost been a year. I would sign up for one TODAY so you don't forget and miss the deadline. Either take Computers to get your core, or take Applied Math because after passing the ALEKS courses, it will be very easy to pass (it's like Beginning Algebra and some 6th grade math).
Take the Institute's free Ethics course.
MIS can be taken at Study.com now instead of Ed4Credit (half the price).
DON'T use Study.com for your Oral Comm requirement, as there's some sort of issue they're working through with TESU right now. Use SL instead. Or the TECEP (Technical Comm).

DO NOT use Study.com right now for Oral Comm, there is an issue with TESU right now and they aren't accepting ANY Study.com courses for this requirement (even Public Speaking).
Saylor's BUS206: Management Info Systems course does NOT come in as UL - it comes in as CIS-201. Instead, you would have to take BUS303: Strategic Info Tech to come in as CIS-301.

are you refering to CIS-107? seems fairly easy and straightforward
