Finish Degree at Baker or TESU?

[dan.g]

Hey All,

I just wanted to send an update that I finished all the courses at Baker for the accelerated BBA program. Now I just need to finish Study.com's Public Speaking class to meet the oral communication requirement (hoping they accept it, also going to finish Straighterline's Intro to Comms class as a backup. Also, need to send them updated ACE transcript with Intermediate Algebra in the hopes it transfers over as Algebra II (I was able to take this class before Aleks ended the ACE agreement).

I should have the Study.com class done this weekend and then going to send in the new ACE transcript. Wish me luck!

I will let you guys know what happens. Worst case scenario I may need to take another math class at Baker (hopefully not).

It took many emails and reciting the manual to advisors before they would ask the Registrar what would be acceptable, but Baker informed my husband that ALEKS Intermediate Algebra transfers as MTH 111 (Introductory Algebra) which is now MTH 1110. He was required to fulfill the credits for MTH111 even though he was already awarded credit for MTH112. They were really pushing a waiver exam and CLEP exam beforehand. You may want to ask about their waiver or CLEP equivalencies.

Thanks for the insight on this, looks like I will indeed need to take another math class then. They accepted beginning algebra from ALEKS as Algebra I, but that was a while ago. Perhaps they will take Trig instead of Algebra II. I really just don't want to pay another $1,500 for a math class that I don't need especially after taking every other class needed .

Also, I've noticed they don't really give insight on what they will accept until you send in the transcript, which makes it even more difficult.
