Does Study have to have some kind of written agreement about the new courses with TESU first, before they are accepted onto degree plans? The answer i have seen crop up in the forum is 'you just have to take it and see what it transfers in as' but i simply don't have the free time or money to take courses which may or may not be accepted can anyone shed light on this conundrum? thank you all so much

TESU does have a partnership with Study.com, but it will be some time before they evaluate those courses (it seems to be behind by maybe 6 months).  Also, the advisors aren't up-to-date on when courses get approved through ACE, so they may not even know that they're ACE-approved at this point - they may be using old data.

So, for someone who can't afford to take the courses and hope (although I give these a high degree of certainty in getting accepted), your best bet is to wait to see what's reported back.  There will be several people who have been waiting for the CS courses to get approved, and will probably be sending them through soon.

Thank you so much. I guess I am curious, for those people who DO submit the courses to TESU and wait to see how they come back...what happens once they submit them to TESU? Is there some kind of formal evaluation process that sets a precedent for what that course comes in as?

I just got a copy of my transcripts I requested to be sent to TESU, where there is supposed to be "3 semester hours" for intro to programming there is a "-1". Guess someone set a field wrong somewhere or a variable wrong if its auto generated.

That is correct, how many courses left do you have for the BSBA?  If you're done with the BSBA, I would focus on the required courses (LL) and work on the AOS (UL) last for the BACS.

I’ve already got some of the classes for cs done. I was doing bsba cis originally and a lot of the classes transfer over it seems. I also have quite a bit of experience with Java and python so knocking out some classes like intro to programming should be a breeze.

If I recall correctly, you're still active as a service person right Zach?  If that's the case, it's only an extra $750 for the capstone.
You'll just have to do a few more Study.com courses for the CS and remaining UL requirements.  

So, end result, BSBA Accounting and BA Comp Sci.  Tuition: https://www.tesu.edu/military/tuition-fees

You've got it good.  That's so much better than what I am going to be paying for an extra BACS degree:
Capstone $1125
Residency $2200
Grad fee: $332
12 courses: $779
BACS Requirements and AOS Total: $4436

I’ve been under the impression that it’s better for me to not use my service benefits, because even though the tuition is cheaper, the residency waiver will cost more. Not sure if this is true but that’s what staff at TESU have told me.
