Transfer Equivalency- BUS- 2100 at TESU - dhanub - 10-18-2023
Hello, I am doing a BS in CIS. One required course is Business 2100: Quantitative Skills for Business. I cannot find an equivalent course at Study.com, StraighterLine, or Sophia. Does anyone know the transfer equivalent? I read somewhere that TESU gives credit for CSM Learn. Are they still granting credit for that? Do I need to take any other math courses to receive credit?
Thanks in advance!

BUS 210 is the CMS Learn course. It's cheap/easy and transfers to your Credly transcript.

Yeah, CSM Learn is currently the only way (outside of TESU) to get BUS 2100. If you're good with math, it'll take maybe 8-10 hours. If you're not so good with math, it'll take longer but is still very doable.

That's right, for some reason they added that as a requirement, previous catalog years didn't require that until 2021... You need to just follow the templates on the WIKI as it has the entire BSBA, gen eds, etc already, you can select the AOS and decide which classes are the ones you need/want.

As someone who abhors any sort of mathematics and has managed to avoid taking traditional higher mathematics since high school, the CSM learn course was an absolute delight. It does cover a lot of mathematics concepts, but uses a strength-based approach; it presents 4 questions on a given topic. If you answer them all correctly, it assumes you know that topic and you don't see that topic again. If you miss any, it gives you a series of exercise (very well designed) to help you gain competency. It then re-tests you with four different questions. If you still don't get them right, it shifts to a different topic. Eventually, you cycle through the material and it keeps giving you some extra learning on the topics you have difficulty with, until you've attained fluency in all topics.
Honestly, one of the reasons I chose TESU was that they would accept CSMLearn as a math credit; they were the only school that would. COSC would accept it... but only as an elective. Excelsior would accept it, but because I took my course a couple months before Excelsior signed their agreement with CSMLearn, even though the course was unchanged and identical, they would not accept it.
If you need a math credit, or need BUS2100 in particular, I highly recommend CSMLearn.
