Thomas Edison - BSBA Finance ?s

[VanillaBean]

Helping a friend who is looking at a BSBA in Finance from Thomas Edison

Has anyone does this?

I think I've figured out all the CBE that I know of via DSST/CLEP/Aleks/Straighterline except for approx 24 hours. Am trying to figure out the most economical and time effective route for this degree.

Can anyone offer any advice for the following requirements - either clep/dsst/ace/aleks/straighterline - etc..... need 18 hours in the "Area of Study":

Financial Institutions and Markets OR Money and Banking
International Finance
Advanced Financial Management/Corporation Finance
Advanced Security Analysis and Portfolio Management OR Investments II
Business Forecasting
Commercial Banking
Capital Budgeting Management
Capital Structure Management
Derivatives
Mathematical Analysis of Financial Decisions
Risk Management
Working Capital Management



These are the ones I'm not sure about - can anyone confirm or deny that these exams will cover these requirements:
Business Law - ??? CLEP Intro to Business Law
Computer Concepts and Applications/Introduction to Computers/CIS - ??? CLEP Info Sys & Comp App
Introduction to Marketing - ??? CLEP Prin of Marketing
Business in Society or International Management - ??? possibly DSST Business Ethics & Society

Finance is a hard one to do, I can only find 5 (maybe 6) courses, 2 are through TESU so full price, 2 TECEP, 1 PF, and 1 possible UExcel/CSU-Global which may or may not work. If not, then he will have to find one additional course somewhere else (Excelsior has a couple

Financial Institutions - TECEP; Money & Banking - DSST is not available right now, with no idea when it will be again
Security Analysis and Portfolio Management - TECEP

Penn Foster has Financial Management which I think fulfills the Principles of Finance requirement. They also have Corporate Finance, which is UL.

UExcel has Quantitative Analysis (UL) which may work (or not); CSU-Global has Quantitative Business Analysis.

International Finance - TESU online
Risk Management - TESU online
