That's a bit difficult, but not impossible! There are some suggestions for courses to transfer to TESU here:

You can also check out the list of schools here and see if anything jumps out at you: https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Sources_of_Credit
As long as you meet the Western/World Civ, American, Non-Western, and Historical Methods requirements, the rest of a TESU degree can be literally anything. The anything would need to include sufficient UL credit.
It's a bit more expensive than some other sources due to being on the quarter credit and not semester credit system, but OSU has an enormous list of classes. Some of which may interest you: https://ecampus.oregonstate.edu/soc/ecat...ubject=HST
A few examples that you might want:
- HST 325 – Early Christianity: Origins to 600
- HST 327 – History of Medieval Europe
- HST 382 – History of Africa
- HST 388 – Islamic Civilization
- HST 391 – Traditional China and Japan
Each of these would be 2.67 credits at TESU instead of the typical 3 semester credit classes. The difference is something to keep in mind when looking for interesting classes.

The syllabus is here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Hglv...sp=sharing You can look up the required textbooks and see what you think.

The residency fee is charged to students who take fewer than 15 TESU credits. Students who qualify for the military rate must take at least 24 TESU credits. https://www.tesu.edu/military/degree-completion However, for military rate students, TECEPs do count toward this requirement. Because you have a prior degree, I would either just take the TESU capstone and pay the residency waiver fee or only complete 15 TESU credits and not bother trying to get the military rate. It could wind up costing you more to be on the military rate at this point.

Excellent post! I had actually applied to OSU. No reason I cant take a few classes there and Study/SL.
Thanks!
