Hey Study.com,
If you really want to make some people happy, there are currently two courses that could finish degrees and save students A LOT of money. Two degrees that I know of have one course each that cannot be found anywhere for a decent price.
The BA English from TESU needs ONLY a Non-Western Literature course (Asian Lit, African Lit, Latin America Lit), and the BA Psych needs ONLY an Ethics in the Social Sciences course.
Please, please consider adding these options!

If memory serves me well, I think the Psychology courses were downgraded from Study.com, so Study.com needs to verify that too.
Please see if you can "upgrade" those Psychology courses back to an UL instead of the downgrade to LL as per a post a few days ago.

They have previously said they are working on Ethics in SocSci and Hist/Systems of Psych to make BA Psych fully test/alternative credit-outable (minus capstone), but this was before the credit downgrade thing which throws a wrench in it all.

They were supposed to be working on more UL Accounting courses but instead they added Cost Accounting which we can already get from Straighterline and Int I/II which they were both needed. I don't see adding a Tax course to be that tough they can have all the chapters basically year to year and really only need to change a few lessons each year to change a few numbers. They could easily do a Accounting Comp Systems course also it should be light on the lesson but very full on projects. 3-4 large Excel projects should be enough. Then again I have no clue what actually goes into making these but if they added one more UL Accounting course it could be test-out eligible (well minus the capstone now).

Ahh, yes, I forgot about the Accounting degree. I know Intermediate II was difficult to find for you so that's good that they added that. Hopefully they make an announcement soon about some new courses!
