My Complete BSBA Degree Plan from TESC - Levi - 11-03-2010
This post is for the benefit of the newer forum members. When I first joined the forum as a tenderfoot [or minor noble
], I remember discovering Farmerboy's BSBA degree template and finding it immensely helpful.Several people have commented on or inquired about my degree plan. It is only listed on the forum in one other thread, but there are a couple of mistakes on that plan, and I can't edit my original post.
So, here is the correct and finalized version of my entire plan. From start to finish, it took about two and a half years at a moderate pace; however, others have completed the same accomplishment in a year or less. Find the pace that works best for you.
The vast majority of my degree was earned through credit-by-examination (i.e., CLEP/DSST/TECEP).
Feel free to ask any questions.

I am getting the same degree as you, and I am wondering - Could I take the Information Systems and Computer Applications CLEP instead of the Intro to Computing DSST? Thanks for your time!

Yes, Thomas Edison accepts both exams.
You would have to double-check with your college if you are not going with TESC.See this page on the TESC website for CLEP/DSST exams that will be accepted by the college, passing scores, and how many credits each test is worth:

Thanks Ryoder! I think so too.
This may be a dumb question, but if anybody could help, that would be great. - Is there any way to get your Master of Science in Management from TESC by Clep/DSST or anything like that?
Thank you all for your time!

No, CLEP/DSST are for undergrad courses only. If you want a master's degree in business via testing, look at Heriott Watt University (Scotland). Be warned, however, that the exams for that program are light years more difficult than CLEP tests.
