Since PFC started offering bacherlos in Business they have added a bunch of interesting upper level Business classes like:
BUS415 Business Research Methods (3 credits)
BUS425 Strategic Business Management (3 credits)
BUS430 International Business (3 credits)
Unfortunately they are not ACE approved, however I would like to know if Excelsior takes them as upper level credit for their business programs
Anybody with experience on this kind of situation?
Thank you!
Perico

EC takes up to 30 credits from NA schools. Your best bet would be to ask them directly if you could use the course in your degree outline.

I believe they will take credits from NA schools if they were earned prior to enrollment with Excelsior. I do not believe they will approve NA credits earned while enrolled. ( with the exception of ACE credits)

Anybody enrolled could please ask them if those classes can be applied as upper level business electives for a Business degree? I am not enrolled so they didn't answer the question

So check it out - It takes me like 8 weeks or so to study up enough for an upper level ECE exam or DSST.
Does anyone have any experience/problems with Excelsior accepting Penn Foster's upper level courses?
cuz i figure at least i could be actually doing the courses and getting em done instead of studying for the same amount of time and MAYBE not pass the test, yaknow?
Anyway - after Business Ethics, I got like 15 UL credits i gotta get.
so im think the ALEKS Intro Stats (i heard they accept it as 3ULs for Liberal Studies)
a couple of ECE exams like AdulthoodAging & Gerontology together.
and then i was thinking a couple of PFC courses like Cost Accounting.
Can anyone tell me what specific upper level courses offered by PFC can be transferred as UL to Excelsior so i can get this piece of paper and have "Bachelor" party already?
thanx everybody
