Hi guys,
I'm finishing up my BA in Mathematics degree from TESU and was wondering where, besides TESU, I can take the more advanced math courses. On the TESU website they list a few options that will satisfy the criteria for my 15 credits of Mathematic Electives. I'm not sure about all the upper/lower level requirements for the degree.
TESU LIST:
Abstract Algebra
Advanced Calculus
Applied Mathematics
Calculus IV (Differential Equations)
Complex Variables
Cryptography and Cryptanalysis
Geometry (prerequisite of calculus or more advanced math)
Graph Theory
History of Mathematics
Mathematical Logic
Mathematical Modeling
Matrix Algebra
Modern Algebra
Multivariate Analysis
Non-Parametric Statistics
Number Theory
Projective Geometry
Sampling Theory
Topology
I'm also looking for more options to take Calculus III (Multivariate Calculus) and Linear Algebra (calculus-based) to satisfy those requirements for my area of study.
Thanks for your assistance,
Manny.

Westcott Courses (aka Omega Math). They've got Calc 1 - 3, Linear Algebra, Abstract Algebra and Methods Of Proof in Mathematics. They used to have another UL course ( I think it was Number Theory) but that isn't showing on their website anymore. It might be something they still offer if you ask for it. All credit is awarded through Brandman University.

Yep westcott seems to be the go-to for the majority of advanced math courses.

edX has (had) 3 UL Differential Equations courses that you could take - but they have to be taken live and I think they've only offered them twice, maybe in 2016 and 2017 or something like that. $49 each.
LSU has an UL probability course with Calc as it's prereq. $800
AMU/APU has 20 UL math courses. $810 each. And a graduate-level math course.

Too bad edx isn't offering those differential equations courses anymore(for credit). I specifically emailed them about it and they didn't seem like they were going to offer them for credit any more.

Hey guys thanks for the great info it was very helpful. I also found some interesting things in your signatures too, so thanks. Love the community here.
I compiled the following table of courses from the info you guys mentioned and from TESU's course catalog. I took StraighterLine's Calc 1 and 2 for 4 credits each and now I'm just wondering if you guys had any insight into which of those courses would be the easiest and quickest. As a disclaimer, I don't know which of these courses are accepted for credit as TESU and I don't know if there's any duplicate courses either. I'm trying to finish this degree so I can Apply to a B&M college for furthering my education and I know the deadline is around April to apply with an undergraduate degree.
I hope this table can help others too.

Any way to know which are considered UL?

I spoke with a TESU advisor and he said any course ID starting with 3 or above (e.g. MAT 315) will transfer as UL.

That's a nice table, I have the same courses listed on my spreadsheet as well for options. I can't think of what to take though.
There's too many to select from, but at a cost perspective, I think I'll go for the cheapest ones first, instead of easy/fast.
Here's the 2, I have decided to take online and taking 3 at the local university (if I can't find cheaper options)
1) Coppersmith - Concepts in Math and Quantitative Analysis
2) Westcott - Abstract Algebra, It's their only UL option https://www.brandman.edu/westcott
OP - There's one thing to note, you haven't taken anything from Study.com yet, you need to take at least two courses to get your money's worth otherwise you lose out on the discounts on the Capstone/Residency Waiver. Now, my question to you is, are you taking courses at TESU? If so, how many?
