After talking with a few helpful people on the forum I created my degree plan for my BSIT I wanted to know if it was fine or if some things need readjusting

First thing that jumps out is that these Saylor courses are not ACE or NCCRS reccomended so they won't be accepted by TESU:

(CS 301) Computer Architecture
(CS201 Elementary Data Structures) Data Structures
(CS401) Operating Systems
(BUS402 Project Management) Project Management


The only Saylor courses that can be used for college credit are the ones listed here: https://www.saylor.org/credit/


There could be other issues but I just glanced at your sheet. It's generally not recommended to use the Big 3 for an IT degree as it can be expensive/hard to find equivalencies. WGU is usually the recommendation if you want to go the IT route.

Would the Project Management Course from Sophia work better? I'm pretty sure they take.

Sophia Project Management is no longer UL, and the AOS as planned requires UL credit for it.  Study.com does offer UL Project Management

TESU accepts Sophia Project Management as MAN435 so it should not be a problem if it is needed as upper level.

If its LL on ACE, and doesn't already appear on your TESU transcript, you should expect it to be LL at TESU as well. They follow ACE and NCCRS recommendations very closely now and have adjusted most of the assessments to reflect their assessment policy.
