Actually, you can't quite work at your own pace. The courses have to be finished in three (3) months.

True, thanks for clarifying. I'm ok with 3 months, hope to get them done sooner. :-)

Awesome job! This should be posted to Degree Forum Wiki! If I ever decide to finish the BSBA at TESC I just might use a couple of these suggestions. I think I'd rather take a PF class than do an ECE or TECEP.

I am deathly afraid of ECEs and TECEPs, and I love testing. I thought about PF for quantitative courses like accounting and finance.

Awesome list, kudos.
How about Penn Foster construction courses equivalencies at TESC? Anyone have experience with these?
The reason I ask is because I was really interested in completing the BSAST in Construction at TESC. This seem somewhat difficult to do through CBE and the other means used to finish degree plans fast, so I ended up settling for a TESC BSBA instead. However, I will be pursuing an MCM (Construction Management) immediately after completing the BSBA so ill be okay.
But if a list with construction courses equivalencies existed, it could be of use to future students wanting to complete the BSAST Construction at TESC.
Anyways, thanks for the information.

These were a bit more difficult to figure out. A lot of PF classes had ACE approval expire in 2011/2012 and do not appear to have been renewed, but if you took PF classes before then, you should definitely check to see if you can receive credit for them.

Ok, I got it started: Unofficial List of Course Equivalencies for Penn Foster & Thomas Edison State College - Degree Forum Wiki
Just want to be sure this thread doesn't get buried and this great information becomes more difficult to find.

Thank you ! I was going to recommend doing this but some one beat me to it.

I didn't add everything from this thread because I ran out of time.
