Help to finding A degree/plan.

Danielp, my friend.  Download the spreadsheets for both BALS English Lit Minor (as an example) & BSBA GM, it's in my dropbox.  As per the quoted text of mine, it's all there.  Haha... Just to repeat - the general education courses are the same, the required professional business courses from the BSBA would be placed into the BALS FREE electives, those are the same 90 credits.  

The only difference again is the AOS - Area of Study, 30 credits worth.  You get that right, it's all in the spreadsheets?  The only difference are the 10 courses (capstone included).  My suggestion is do everything from SL and Study.com since you're not close to a testing center.  Do not make people repeat what's already there, once is fine, twice is OK, a third time would be a bit taboo or repetitive...

Yeah my bad, I just wasn't sure if I could pick anything and I wasn't really looking for a concentration in GM, so it made me quite unsure.

I think you missunderstood my question since I phrased it wrong. But can I use ANY of the courses from the required professional business courses into the BALS? That's what I meant

The business courses can't be used in the BALS (at least not in the AOS, or Gen Ed's).  They can be used in Free Electives.  So unless you have a plan for each, and know which courses you're going to use and where they go, it begins to be difficult to figure it out.

Okay thanks. I think I finally understand it now. I've attached my spreadsheet. Is it possible to move the free credit courses (Teex, Sophia and NFA) into General Education Electives? I need 9 credits there atm..

And can I change whatever degree (An example is a BALS with a concentration) I want as long as I haven't started on the AOS?

Macroecon & Microecon are Gen Ed's.  The TEEX CIS-344 can be moved to Gen Ed, but the others can't be moved - they aren't classified as Gen Ed's.

Once you move those, you just have to take English Comp I & II, and Speech, and you're done with your Gen Ed's.  BUT, that's just you putting them where you want them.  Once you apply to TESU and send your transcripts, they will move some things to the AOS (assuming you're doing a BALS) because they will fit into the AOS, and it's more important to put them there than the Gen Ed's (which are easier to find).  So just be aware of that.

If you take a bunch of Business courses thinking you might want to switch at a later date, they will go into Free Electives for the BALS, but would get moved if you switched degree plans.

Okay, is there somewhere where I can see what courses fits in the free electives? I haven't found a spreadsheet that covers it yet. (I prefer SL, since i'm still using that site)

Business Law and Organizational behavior should be fine, right?

Free electives can be anything. That's why they are called free. This is where your PE courses or anything that won't fit elsewhere go.

Thank you! That cleared it up for me

Business Law is a Free Elective if not a BSBA major, Org Behavior will be a Gen Ed or BALS AOS course if not BSBA, since it's considered a Psych course.

  tesu ba psychology.xlsx (Size: 23.96 KB / Downloads: 16) Hi, all, 
I also need some help. I'm trying to do a degree in Psychology at TESU.
Here is what i've come up with so far. Can someone help fill in the whole in the major? and all other help is greatly appreciated on this amazing forum!

thanks in advance!

Intro to Ethics can not be used for that AOS. It needs to be Ethics in the Social Sciences, which is only available at TESU right now (but I believe Study.com is working on it). You can use Intro to Ethics for your General Ed ethics requirement, but most people use the free ethics course from The Institutes for that. All the general ed stuff is very easy to find and there are plans for that all over the forum and wiki.

the area AOS subjects you don't have filled in (History and Systems of Pysch, Research Meyhods, and Developmental Psych) and many psych elective courses can be completed through Study.com, but they'll all come in LL so make sure you have all the UL you need. You should get the free Study.com Guardian scholarship if you plan on doing study.com.

Here's some other options from my wiki plan, but it's slightly outdated because the Study.com stuff recently was downgraded to LL and there are new courses I haven't added yet. Plus they don't let you waive the extra Soc Psych credits anymore (but the way you have it on your plan now should work fine).

Okay, i'm done with Business law and i'm working on Org. behavior and introduction to communication right now. I think i'm done with all my general education credits (Besides English comp 1 and 2, which I will do on Study.com)
Any suggestions for courses at SL? That would work in both a BALS and a BSBA and preferably one where I have passed the course before the final exam. (Not required though)
