Quickest degree from TESU

[azt579]

I enrolled in TESU back in April and was initially going to pursue a BSBA in CIS. I've since changed my mind because my career goals have changed and I don't really require a computer based degree any longer. With that in mind, what would be the quickest BSBA concentration to complete? I would prefer a degree with the option to CLEP out of as many courses as possible. Thanks!

General Management is the most available/flexible.

General Management is the cheapest/easiest/fastest of the concentrations as everything can be tested out of, the others may require a course.
Having said that, you want to see if going into a Masters degree is where you want to ultimately end at, there maybe prerequisite courses.

You shouldn't worry about the "concentration" as the AOS (Area of Study) is the only difference, you can finish those final 6 courses last.
Focus on your other courses and decide on that final section of your degree later when you've got up to say 90+ credits...

Some CLEP/DSST would be great options, are you really close to a testing site? If so, continue with them.
Also, are you only looking for CLEP/DSST options only? Have you thought about using Saylor/Straighterline, etc?

TESU Equivalency CLEP: CLEP - College-Level Exam Program
TESU Equivalency DSST: DSST (formerly DANTES)

Your best bet right now is to redo/revamp your spreadsheet and see what courses are missing/required. As there are multiple options for cheap/fast credit.
As an example, from looking at your signature, you can take the free courses NFA and TEEX for free elective credits.

Shmoop.com has 3 history courses for you to take at less than $90/month if you complete all 3 for 9 credits for general education electives. If your courses can be moved into other sections, you may only be required to take lesser courses.

Thanks. I'll look into the free courses and Shmoop...never heard of that one.
