I'm wanting to complete a bachelor's degree in Homeland Security and Emergency Management at either TESU or Excelsior. I've completed most of the basic LL courses (English, History, etc) at Straighterline. 

I actually had my transcripts evaluated by Excelsior, and I only have 40 credits needed to get the degree there! Of course 30 of those are UL courses. 

Does anyone have any recommendations for UL credit?

For Excelsior I need all UL:
Intro to Homeland Security - Propero (LL)
Emergency Management - CSU-Global (UL)
Domestic Terrorism - Penn Foster (LL), CSU-Pueblo Indep. Study (UL)
Research Methods in Criminal Justice or Comparative National Security Analysis  - Study.com (LL), CSU-Global (UL)
Infrastructure Security and Policy - Security Management? - Penn Foster (LL)
Intro to Corrections - Propero (LL)
Criminal Justice Administration - Penn Foster (UL)
Criminal Procedure and Evidence - Penn Foster (LL), Propero (LL)

For TESU I need:
Terrorism - Penn Foster (LL)
Counterterrorism
Homeland Security - Propero (LL)
Protecting the Homeland
Research Methods in the Social Sciences  - Study.com (LL), CSU-Global (UL)

and 5 from this mix:
White Collar Crime  - Study.com (LL), PF (LL)
Victimology and Criminal Behavior  - Study.com, PF, Propero (LL), [b]CSU-Global (UL)[/b]
Public Policy, Crime and Criminal Justice
Management Information Systems - multiple
Interpersonal Communications  - Study.com (LL), CSU-Global (UL)
Elements of Intercultural Communication  - Study.com (LL)
War and American Society  - Study.com (LL)
Organizational Behavior - multiple
International Relations I - International Public Relations? - CSU-Global (UL)
Conflict in International Relations
Introduction to Social Psychology  - Study.com (LL)
Introduction to Counseling - DSST (LL)
Gangs - CSU-Pueblo Indep. Study (UL)
Games People Play: Game Theory in Life, Business and Beyond
Challenges in U.S. and Global Public Health
Deliberative Democracy and Social Action
Integrating Public Safety and Homeland Security
Concepts of Emergency Management

However, I'm not sure how many from TESU need to be UL.

Any advice is appreciated and welcome. I have done some searching, but haven't found much. Unfortunately, not a lot of info on the forum for this degree either.
Thanks!

Not particularly. I have a background in safety and emergency training design in higher education. I currently work in higher education, and I've worked in other areas of government in the past. My educational background consists of a B.S. in Public Administration and an M.Ed. in Instructional Design and Technology. I've taken an extreme interest in furthering my education to include a degree in Emergency Management/Homeland Security. My job aligns well with training departments at FEMA, etc. I suppose that's my dream job; to do training for FEMA. I'm in my late 20's, so I have time. I am involved in my local CERT and have a slight obsession with public service and safety.   Especially on college and university campuses. That was probably more info than you cared to know!
