New Study.com Finance course FIN-104 - ndelco - 02-24-2017
Just got this email from TESU:
We have solved your issue
The Study.com course, Financial Management, will transfer over as FIN-100, Introduction to Finance. However, it is not an appropriate option for any open degree requirement. Please do not attempt this option.
That's a real bummer.

Ouch. Thanks for the update.

That is a bummer - but it's only 2cr anyway, so wouldn't be super helpful in your AOS at this point even if it did come in as UL (you'd still need another 3cr course to make up for the lack of 1cr in that slot, because there are no 1cr courses that will work).
If you're in "Finance" mode and want to take another Finance exam after you finish your Principles of Finance course, you should consider Corporate Finance (FIN-311) or Multinational Business Finance (FIN-334) through Davar.

Study.com said they were going to try to get it to 3 credits in the coming months. But oh well. At least now we know that it's not even an option. I'm just going to stick with the Accounting course from Study.com at this point to fill my third section in the AOS. I'm not a fan of Finance or Accounting, but I was hopeful for this new course because it doesn't have a project to bother with.
