I did search but there was so much scattered info I was hoping I could confirm here.
I am missing Managerial Accounting for Excelsior Degree. From what I have read so far, I can take Straighterline Account II, transfer to FHSU, then transfer to Excelsior? Is it possible to go Straight > ACE > Excelsior still?
Thank You in advance.

I believe that people were using FHSU before Excelsior became a "Partner College" with Straigterline. From the Straighterline web site:
When you enroll at Excelsior College, you just e-mail your StraighterLine course advisor to have your StraighterLine transcript forwarded to Excelsiorâ itâs that easy!
If you want a letter grade, I think you could still have it transcripted through FHSU, as they give a letter grade and Excelsior is pass/fail. Someone will probably come along that knows more about that than I do.

I'm currently taking Accounting II through Straighterline.

I took the straighterline Managerial Accounting last week. Upon course completion I told them I wanted FHSU to transcribe it. They sent me to FHSU to apply and pay the $30 fee, and my grades should be entered into the system soon.
The first time I took this course at a traditional school was in the mid 90's and I got a "D". Completed this course in 9 hours total and was very excited about it.
Good luck! Read some of the suggestions on previous posts for tips and tricks.

PMartinez,
The quote below is correct. Excelsior is now a partner college. Here is a chart of how they will transfer the credits.

I went with FHSU for a grade ($30 enrollment fee/first 3 transcripts free). If I had scored lower than 80% I would have used ACE for CR. Breakdown below:
Straighterline > FHSU > TESC
course grade: 90-100% = A
course grade: 80-89% = B
course grade: 70-79% = C
Straighterline > ACE > TESC
course grade: 70%+ = CR

Hello, I am wrapping up my Associates (English and Accounting left) and started thinking of the GPA. So far all my credits are reported as Pass since they are all tests. I am doing Managerial Accounting next, which I was going to do through Straighterline.
I was wondering, if I go the FHSU > Excelsior route for a letter grade, since that will probably be my only graded credit, will that constitute as my GPA alone? Or do I also have to get a grade for English too?

So Straighterline Accounting II will cover Managerial accounting at TESC?
Is it cheaper to just send it Straighterline>ACE>TESC or the other way?
One last question. Does the course cost $99+$39 as said on their homepage, or $399 as listed under the course?
Thanks

It will be cheaper and faster to go directly to TESC (they are now a partner college) not through ACE.
As for the pricing you have two options.
$99/month plus one time $39 course fee is your least expensive option if you will finish your coursework in less than 4 months. You can sign up here:

The $399 option is the way to go if you want to take 6 months to finish the course. You can sign up from the course page.
