I found this link:

And I am trying to get a TESU BACS. These would be a great source of RA credits. I am wondering if anyone has successfully used any of these as RA credit for TESU? And I see Metropolia offers nonstop virtual studies. Has anyone tried these? And how are the courses? Are they decent? Are the proctored? Any information about using these universities for RA credit in relation to the TESU BACS would be helpful.
Thanks!
Edit: Also, can someone do these if they only know english?

ROYISAGIRL has successfully transferred XAMK credits to TESU. You must use ACEI to evaluate Finnish credits (because other evaluators essentially refuse to deal with the Finnish university system), but all schools should be more or less like XAMK as far as transferability goes.
You will need to check the description of each course to get an idea of what to expect, but they're usually projects/papers/quizzes. I have not yet seen any that are proctored. If there are exams that MUST be taken at a certain time, it should say that in the description. The nonstop start ones almost never have things that need to be completed at a specific time, and this includes exams. There may be exams, but they're unproctored.
IIRC, those Metropolia University classes are all taught in English, not Finnish. Some universities do offer classes that are taught in Finnish, Russian, maybe even Swedish. But it will say in the class description when that is the case. I know XAMK will sometimes send you newsletter-type emails in Finnish and/or English, but most of these can be safely ignored. If the other universities send emails in Finnish, you can always use DeepL/Google Translate to see if it's anything you need to pay attention to.
In progress:
TESU - BA Computer Science; BSBA CIS; ASNSM Math & CS; ASBA
Completed:
Pierpont - AAS BOG
Sophia (so many), The Institutes (old), Study.com (5 courses)
ASU: Human Origins, Astronomy, Intro Health & Wellness, Western Civilization, Computer Appls & Info Technology, Intro Programming
Strayer: CIS175, CIS111, WRK100, MAT210

Hey OP, In addition to what as mentioned... It's great you're asking questions and reviewing the info on the form/wiki. Having said that, you really need to understand what you're trying to do... Here's the thing, you need to make sure TESU is your final destination, if you decide on PUG, SNHU or WGU for their degrees, this will not work (or any other school that doesn't ACEI). You need to draw your path, not just look at the cost, ease, speed to finish...
Having said that, you also need to see which masters you would like to go, some masters that are semi or more competitive may require more details from where the undergrad credits came from, they really scrutinize your previous credits, thus... this may not be the route. If you're going for the majority of the options we provide you, such as PUG, SNHU, WGU, Walden, etc, these are not really competitive, you should be able to get in with just the TESU info.
