Does anyone know where this class fits in with a TESC BSBA? I'm hoping it falls under business elective. I've seen that the TESC site indicates that personal finance and principles of supervision can not be used in the major area of study. However, I have also seen several users on here and the degree wiki post principles of supervision as a business elective. If that holds true for principles of supervision, is it the same for personal finance?
Thank you!

I believe it's considered a business class, that's why it can't be used for GE at TESC.

I know of people who have had Principles of Supervision counted as a business elective; it just can't go in the major area of study such as general management, accounting, computer information systems, marketing, human resources, etc. I am not sure if Personal Finance is always counted as a free elective or can also be counted as a business elective.

They have taken principles of supervision under business in the past, but personal finance has always been a free elective. Funny thing is, when I see all these stories about school debt I think personal finance should be a mandatory course for every degree

Many have asked this question and have been told "No. Personal finance is just to basic to count as anything other than a free elective for a business degree."
Business elective exams -
DSST Intro to Business (BUS101)
DSST Principles of Supervision (BUS201),
DSST Business Math (BUS161),
TEEX courses (CIS-),
TECEP Public Relations Thoughts & Practices ( COM210) can also be used as a business elective if not used in the area of study.
I see you've taken CLEP Info Systems & Computer Applications (COS101), consider taking the new TECEP Computer Concepts & Applications ( CIS107). CIS107 will fill the IIa business core CIS requirement and COS101 will drop to business electives.
Good luck!

I'm taking the TEEX exams now. Can I still take the CIS107 TECEP in addition to the computers CLEP? I'm hoping none of these duplicate.

No they do not duplicate. TEEX courses transfer in as CIS299, CIS344, MAN299. I think it's a good idea to pile on as many credits as you can in the same subject matter. Easier to study because the foundation of the coursework remain the same. If you can use them in your degree plan, CLEP-COS101, TECEP-CIS107, DSST-CIS301, MAN299, CIS299, and CIS344 together equals 15credits. I would take full advantage.
CIS107 will most likely fill the computer core slot. The rest will populate under your area of study and/or business electives. I would ask advising to pin the TEEX courses together under GMS electives (or business electives) so the evaluation online software does not break up the 6credits.
You have enough UL accounting courses to fill GMS required as well as 3cr to drop down to GMS elective area. You'll only need a marketing or finance course to complete GMS. Consider the COM210 public thoughts and practices tecep exam. I understand it's a relatively easy tecep and it meets the marketing requirement.

Remember that CLEP Information Systems and Applications duplicates DSST Intro to Computing. The new DSST for Fundamentals of Cybersecurity duplicates TEEX Cybersecurity for IT Professionals; however, the DSST is worth 3 credits while the TEEX course is only worth 2.

If they can "pin" all 3 together so that they will account for 6 credits of business electives then I don't think I will have any use for the CIS107 TECEP because I have completed SL intro to business which I believe can only be used as a business elective. That would give me all 9 and my CLEP info systems will satisfy the computer slot. Does that all sound right?
I had seen the TEEX credits broken up in Sahahapost's recent evaluation and was wondering if it was of any value to take the Man299 course if will only get me 2 credits.
