Hey guys,
I'm finishing up my BSL right now at Excelsior but I also want to go back after I start my Master's and pick up a business degree. Does anyone have insight as to which business degree program is better between TESC and Excelsior? Thanks.

Depends on what your needs are and where your accumulated credits fall. EC requires upper level classes and for you to take their Business Strategy class, with TESC you can complete a degree with 200 level courses if you so desire. I've also heard elsewhere that EC now only allows concentrations versus actual majors, maybe someone else can give more details, the last catalog I downloaded still had the majors available. TESC fulfilled my needs moreso than EC but everyone is different. Good luck in whatever you decide...
I m edumakated thanx to distunce lerning.

you can just go for an MBA. you dont need a business undergrad degree to go for an MBA, there are a ton of schools out there that have open enrollment and only require a bachelors of any kind
