If you're taking coursework thru TESC to obtain financial assistance that's fine, but most of your classes could probably be found at a local CC for a couple hundred bucks cheaper than what they would cost at TESC. The only one I know for a fact that you would have to take at a 4-year university is the Business Policy class. I know my local CC (Tidewater CC if you're in VA) has an on-line Systems A&D class and I bet yours' offers one too, whether or not it's on-line, you'd have to see. And it does have to be Systems A&D, it cannot be the Network Technology class.
If you're wanting to get into a highly competitive grad school the more graded credits the better, but I do know of at least one person who tested nearly completely out of his BS in general business from Excelsior and after getting a 700 on the GMAT was accepted into Indiana-Bloomington's MBA program, which is a top-20 program in the country. If I had known about testing out earlier I would've done the same thing. Just something to think about...
