Degree Plan TESU BSBA in Accounting

[thecontrarian]

AP Tests: I'm not sure where you got the information about using only 3. TESU will treat the AP tests as other alternative credit: It counts towards your maximum 90 credit allowable limit. So, assuming you got at least 3s, you'll have:

6 credits of World History (HIS 121/122)
6 credits of US History (HIS 113/114)
8 credits of Physics with Lab (PHY 115/116)
3 credits of Calculus (MAT-231)

This will cover your Knowledge of Human Cultures, Physical/Natural World, Quantitative Analysis, and put some extra credits into your GE Electives.

I've heard that Sophia isn't great for English Comp, but it's not awful. You seem to be able to test well, so if you can take the College Composition CLEP I would recommend that. Principles of Statistics must go into the Mathematics slot of a BSBA degree.

I would take more at Sophia instead of SDC in your business requirements. You can get Managerial Accounting, Business Law, Principles of Finance, Micro/Macroeconomics, and computer concepts. This is purely a cost savings measure.

You're taking a lot of classes through TESU. If you truly want the accounting/CPA track, that's great, but there are more cost-effective concentrations.

Finally, I don't want to question your decision to go to TESU, but just be sure that's what you want to do.

Thanks Flelm, that's really useful info, I'll update the plan to reflect the AP courses.

The only reason for TESU is that I live in NJ so people are definitely familiar with the college. I'll look at alternatives though for sure.

EDIT: the objective is to get the accounting concentration.

Do you think that this is a viable plan to execute in 9 - 12 months? I appreciate that this is more subjective and dependant upon me personally, but does it seem unreasonable to you in any way?

Thanks!
