at least they still have the TECEP option. I wish they had a TECEP liberal arts capstone.
Excelsior is creating liberal arts capstones that wouldn't apply to the business degrees. TESU already doesn't allow students to transfer in the liberal arts capstone.

I was speculating that they don't want the excelsior liberal arts capstone to be transferable for liberal arts degrees, so they're no longer letting business capstones transfer in for business degrees, so at least they have a consistent policy.
whatever the reason, it's a bummer.

I don't think this is the reason because Excelsior already has liberal arts capstones, and you could never transfer them to TESC for as long as they had a liberal arts capstone.

The business school seems to be changing policies whenever it wants without any warning. If someone really wanted to fight with them as an enrolled student, they could argue that policies shouldn't be changed mid-year and that everything should be documented in the catalog. I sent TESU an email since I'm enrolled in the BSBA program.

Since you got it pre-approved, hopefully, you will be fine. If not, you should raise hell.

I believe it is more likely the switch from College to University status and TESU seeking ACBSP accreditation, that are affecting the requirements for the Business school degrees.
