I can't tell you how awesome it is that you guys participate in our conversations.
That being said, I think we would all agree that if you could post equivalents for the new courses it would be AMAZING!
If i send my advisor at TESU one more random question about transfer credits I think I will owe her flowers or something. That poor woman

Kgaul, Study said on another post that they were waiting for TESU to give them the course equivalencies for the new offerings, so at least it's a work in progress.
BA, MA, EdS, MMT, etc.
83 hours of ACE-worthy credits

oh I know. I already sent an email to TESU to see what they will come in as. They told me they would look into it so I am hoping early next week. I will know about the 2 courses I asked about. Information Technology Strategy and The Computer Networking course. I am hoping they come in as upper level. Exciting times for alternative credits

I am really hoping the FIN-104 comes in as a Finance course for TESU. I do not have any desire to take the UL Accounting course from Study.com to fulfill the 3rd requirement for my AOS.

There are other options. You can take a FIN course, or MAR course. You only need 3 out of 4 of the areas.
Davar Academy added Corporate Finance, Multinational Business Finance, and Principles of Sales. Any of those would work.
PF already had Corp Finance, Consumer Behavior, and Marketing Research.
TESU has several.
You are definitely not stuck with Accounting as your only option.

Unfortunately for me, I am stuck with it as of now. I have already paid for all of my credits through Study.com so if I took one of those courses I would just be wasting $100 plus whatever the new course cost. I think it's great that there are now many more options though! I have already taken the Study.com Digital Marketing course and three Management courses for the AOS, so it's either the UL ACC or this new FIN course if they get it up to 3 credits before I'm all done. The good news is I don't need to decide until about June so hopefully the new FIN course will be upgraded and also will work for TESU.
