Please look at my degree plan. Under "C. Business electives" near the bottom I wonder if anyone could tell if there are any courses through penn foster (that fit under business electives but not duplicated elsewhere in my plan) that I could take OTHER THAN Business mathematics. My other question is will Business Mathematics (ICS-0056) through penn foster fullfill the requirement in my tesc bsba plan for the course of that same name?

Hi Walternc3, I am sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong, but in working out your plan did you follow the current catalog?
BSBA in General Management Degree Program
It is broken down or arranged a bit differently than what you show, and my BSBA TESC evaluation, that I just received, does follow the requirements as listed in the above link. One thing I noticed as missing in your plan is Precalculus or Quantitative Business Analysis, or does TESC accept Trig. for that?

ALEKS Trigonometry is transcribed as precalculus at TESC.

I decided to just go ahead and take the Business Math through Penn Foster after all. After looking through other course descriptions I realized I'd rather just do math problems than turn in any written assignments. Since I'm enrolling soon I've looked through the degree plan again and checked it against TESC's handbook a final time. That's when I realized that I couldn't take "marketing communications" as a course, only as a TECEP. I had scheduled to take the marketing communications TECEP while in America with the 24 other exams that I took (and passed) this last month. But I chickened out at the last minute. Anyway, I'd rather do at least one class through TESC so that I'll get a GPA and I decided to fill that slot with Small Business Management. This forum has been invaluable to me. Thanks
