Need help with BSBA-HR degree - Jimmy999 - 04-26-2018

I'd like to thank everyone here for helping me get back into the swing of things education wise.    This forum has been soo valuable and has allowed me to get back into school and help pave the way for my highschool boys to get ahead in their degree path.     We are as a team working on CLEP tests and it's all because I stumbled onto this forum a month or so ago.

I'd like to request some specific assistance in regards to the TESU BSBA - Human Resources degree path for myself.    I'm in the process of sending in all of my transcripts to TESU for review and have been working at CLEP and Study.com for the past month.    I'm hoping someone can help me with finding the proper courses to take going forward to be most efficient in my degree path.

I have around 50 credits currently, however I'm unsure how some will fit in this program.   Attached is my current Credit Log I've maintained of what I have and I'm hoping one of you Veterans of TESU could help me figure out the best path.

Any help of suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Just an FYI, your insurance courses (and a lot of other credits) will be lost in the HR degree, as they don't count for anything in the degree.  So, you might want to look at the BS in Professional Services to see if that might be of interest to you.  That way, you could use the Insurance courses as your Specialty, and all 14cr will work there (and it looks like 9cr would be UL as well).

But I made a spreadsheet for you for the BSBA/HR degree anyway.

Also, you may want to look into Excelsior and COSC, they may take a lot more of your courses than TESU will (the BSBA especially, has very little space for free electives and other non-traditional coursework).

Last, you may really want to look at WGU, as they won't take as much coursework as you've already done, but they may come out to cost the least, and they have an BSB-HR degree.  You can still bring in a lot of credit, but then take the final term at WGU for about $3500.

Thanks for the input and assistance. I might look at the Professional services, but I kind of had my heart set on HR. Did you attached at SS, I'd love to look it over?

Not sure why the spreadsheet didn't come through, I'll try it again.

Thank you for your help...

It sucks that I can't use all of those other credits, especially the UL insurance ones.....Might force me to look into another option ;(

When you have unusual credits like those, honestly, TESU is not your best option (MAYBE the BALS, but even then, not the best bet).

Check out COSC, EC, and WGU.
