Tesu Degree Plan Needing Assistance - FinishTHEM - 01-24-2017

Am looking to get your recommendations on best ways to fulfil the remaining requirements of my degree in accounting at TESU
http://www.tesu.edu/business/bsba/Accounting.cfm

I need to knock out:

Management 3 SH (Would MAN-301 ie: Principles of Management - BUS201 at straighterline fulfill this?)
Finance 3 SH (Would BUE-101 ie: Personal Finance - FIN101 at straighterline fulfill this?)
Business/Society 3SH
Strategic Mngt 3 SH
Intermed Acctg 3 SH (Just need II, I is completed)
Acct Electives 9 SH (Have finished cost accounting through Straighterline)

I just started a straighterline membership and knocked out 5 classes in the last three days. Would appreciate any input on finishing my remaining classes.

Management 3 SH: MAN-301 SL Principles of Management - BUS201
Finance 3 SH: Personal Finance will not work. Study.com's Finance 101: Principles of Finance would count as TESU FIN-301.
Business/Society 3SH: Study.com's Business 308: Globalization & International Management or the TECEP Business in Society
Strategic Mngt 3 SH: TECEP Strategic Management is the only alternative to the TESU course
Intermediate Accounting II: CSU Global ACT360EX (3 credits)
Electives:
Study.com Accounting 302: Advanced Accounting/ TESU ACC-401
and there are a bunch at CSU Global

Thomas Edison State University
Thomas Edison State University Course Equivalency Guide | StraighterLine

I am pretty sure a lot of other people (especially Dfrecore) know more options than I do.
Good luck!

In addition to what KayV said, Study.com also has Applied Managerial Accounting, which comes in as ACC-301. Then, CSU-Global is your best bet for the final accounting elective.

All great suggestions. There's also the TECEP for Federal Income Tax.

Thank you all for your input, It has definitely given me some ideas in ways that I can complete these final requirements. I was curious, is Penn Foster credit still accepted by TESU?

And was Study.com similar to straighterline in that the entirety of the grade in the course matters or just the final exam?

Penn Foster has courses that are ACE approved and TESU will accept those. But they have a ton of non-ACE approved courses, those are NOT accepted.

For study.com, you watch a ton of short 5 minute or so videos, and after each video you have a 5 question quiz. The best of three attempts on each individual quiz goes toward your grade (if you get 100% the first time, move on to the next. Anything after 3 tries doesn't count). Then, you have a final exam that can be taken one time. Some of the upper level classes have short written projects. Check the syllabus as it could be different depending on class, but the quizzes should be about a third of your grade (this is different for courses with projects, though)

So I'm currently working on Pen Foster's Intermediate Accounting 2 that will transfer in as an Upper Level course and then Cost accounting is UL so that leaves 2 more UL courses that are needed. I think I read somewhere that Pen Foster's Intermediate accounting 1 transfers in as an UL course too? If so I would gladly retake it for the UL portion to be that much closer. Does anyone know if that computer concepts accounting course from Pen Foster is still accepted?
