please help me finish my tesu or exc degree plan

[any4yeardegree]

Hey there... You pretty much decided on which school and program you wanted with the "UL credits earned/needed".  That indicates you're heavily into TESU's 18 UL requirements VS the 30 UL needed at Excelsior.  It won't really matter which school/program, your focus right now is to complete all the Sophia.org courses that doesn't duplicate your current courses, every single one of them but the college readiness and foundation courses.  Excelsior accepts these remedial courses for transfer but TESU doesn't...

If you're really feeling you want to excel and speed up a bit faster, you can work on CSM Learn, InstantCertCredit, and do all the FREE TEEX and/or Death Investigation course from TEEX at $75 for 3 easy UL credits.  If you're going Excelsior, that UL course may not transfer over.  When you're done with the Sophia.org courses, update this thread, for now, I would recommend to follow the Generic TESU BALS template on the wiki here:  https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Ge...egree_Plan

The last piece of the puzzle, is the Upper Level requirements, you can decide if you want to go for a concentration such as Humanities or Social Science, if not, a BALS with no concentration would work as well.  The main providers for these UL I recommend are as follows: Coopersmith, Davar, Study.com, you can pick and choose your courses by viewing their course lists and update this thread with the courses that interest you.

The reason I'm attempting to focus on school right now is so I don't lose the credits on my ACE transcript.  Over the weekend, I emailed ACE to ask what happens to credits if I don't transfer them by the end of November but they haven't answered yet.

I have 6 months free with Sophia so I'm going to hurry through everything I complete with them before I move on to other vendors. 

Does CSM Learn duplicate College Algebra?  Other than the cybersecurity courses at teex, what else is free?  I'm not really a fan of teex since they seem to take an excessively long time but affordability is a priority for me since I'm currently between jobs.

I'm thinking of BALS with no concentration.  

You all know waaay more than I do, however, I must admit, I'm bit concerned about Coopersmith, Davar & TEEX and a few others, since they seem to be in the grouping with provisionally approved by TESU.  https://www.tesu.edu/academics/catalog/provider-directory
