Remaining credits transfer, how can I do these as RA if I don't meet March deadline?

[elenlushk]

Also, I'm a bit lost at how I can convert these into RA credits if I can't finish them up before March to meet TESU's new transfer policy.

Would doing these from study.com/instantcert.com/Davar/SOPHIA make it possible to transfer to a RA institution before I transfer it onwards into TESU? 

Then the question comes to how the credits will transfer from ACE into said RA institution THEN onto TESU. How do I find this information? Does anyone know if there are users on this forum that have done this?

There is no option to 'convert' ACE or NCCRS credits into RA credit at TESU. You'll need to either complete any 90+ non-collegiate before March, or plan some RA credits into your roadmap.

If there was a trick to hide or launder ACE credits as RA at TESU, not only would it not be a secret on this board, everyone would be doing it.

To confirm what @innen_oda said, this just isn't possible. Colleges can easily see the source of transfer credits on a transcript and will request original transcripts from each academic institution.

The only way to "convert" ACE credits into RA credits is to retake those courses from a regionally accredited college. In the past, this meant having to enroll in a community college or 4-year college and jump through the normal hoops. But at least there are alternative options now for RA credits.

If you cannot complete the balance of credits you need before March, you have a few options as I see it:

1. Make sure you get as many of your GenEd's out of the way via ACE as you can. Then, look for at RA credit sources like local community colleges, online colleges (ASU earned admission, for example), or places like TEL learning to earn the balance of courses you need.

2. Drop TESU and find a degree at Excelsior that you like and plan to complete the degree there. They haven't put any restrictions on ACE credits for their bachelor's degrees (yet).

3. Drop TESU and check to see if WGU has a degree that fits you. You can still only transfer in up to 90 credits towards degrees at WGU, but you can complete the balance of ~30 credits (10 courses) from WGU for much less than you can from TESU or elsewhere. Plus, they are competency-based, which means you can complete courses from WGU at approximately the same speed that you could at Study.com, StraighterLine, or Sophia.

I've already completed all of the GE except american government.

WGU doesn't work for me because I don't live in the USA. 
Excelsior is a bit out of my price range and I would have to re-do a lot of courses to meet their UL requirements.
And the RA places you mentioned only offer GE courses it seems, so it looks like I'm stuck with the rushing option. 

Do you mind taking a look at my list to see if my assumptions of the following for transfer are correct?

I currently still have the following courses I need to complete to meet the TESU BSBA GM requirement, excluding their cornerstone and capstone:
- American Government
- International Business
- Managerial Communication
- Managerial Accounting
- Principles of Finance
& 4 AOS UL courses (I've already done DSST Human Resource Management and DSST Organizational Behavior which I assume counts for 2 LL in AOS)

- Do the following work for my above remaining courses? (listing more UL courses so I can choose)
