My BA is Official Thread... and a BIG Thanks!
#1
I had posted when I was almost "official", but 25 years after high school graduation (I was homeschooled K-12 back in the day when it was all new) this diploma makes it real!

[ATTACH=CONFIG]2216[/ATTACH] and [ATTACH=CONFIG]2217[/ATTACH]

I want to thank all the active members here at df, including (but not limited to!), in no particular order: bricabrac, cookderosa, jsd, ladylearner, rebel100, ndelcollo, alzee, KayV, alissaroot, NAP, jmeitrem, Prloko, gingerbeefE, bjcheung77, sanantone, dfrecore, and many others here for helping me over the years (especially the last 2 years or so).

This help included sharing words of advice (sometimes multiple times on the same topic when I wavered), answering questions, giving stories of personal experience, frequent encouragement and more, especially as I reached the final portion of my BA journey.

A special thanks to dfrecore for her help arranging my credits... even with my many courses/credits, somehow TESU had wanted me to take more. By shifting categories, dfrecore utilized what I already had to maximize my potential and basically fixed my academic eval. I also want to thank her for the push to use TECEPS for TESU residency credits. I was able to use them just before that loophole was closed.

Also, a huge thanks to jsd for the work he put into starting and updating the threads on TESU Capstone /mentors! The information he shared/facilitated was extremely valuable to me and many others.

It's been said before (by many), but is still very true -- you are all amazing! [ATTACH=CONFIG]2218[/ATTACH]

Thank you jsd! And thank you for the Capstone info threads... I added that to my original post. Your research/combo posts and sharing of your personal experience was the catalyst for my finishing. I'm pretty sure I might still be debating which Capstone prof to take if it hadn't been for you.

PLA Tips Thread - TESU: What is in a Portfolio?
#10
That's wonderful! Congratulations!!
BSBA/Accounting TESU (2016). MSA UIUC (2018).

Need help with portfolios? I earned 18 credits at TESU through portfolio evaluations. Nine of those were for upper level accounting courses. My advice for PLA/portfolios: TESU portfolio tips The first post has the Portfolio Checklist I created. Page ten has the actual narrative I wrote to receive credit for ACC-440.

Using Straighterline's Financial Accounting as a substitute for TESU's Intermediate Accounting I? Don't do it if you are an accounting major and/or want your CPA license. They are not the same course and I think TESU has erred in accepting the SL course as Intermediate I. I made this discovery here: Intermediate Accounting II.
