Also if I got some F's before would tesu or other college still accept me?

For your bad grades, you can check the academic / grade forgiveness policy.
You won't be able to transfer the bad grades for credit, but they won't stop them from accepting you as far as I know.
For some graduate programs you might need to check the grade requirements.

As far I know the big 3 accept everyone. Courses with an f grade won't count toward your degree but they worn stop you from getting accepted.

All all the credits that you listed C or above? Ds can often be used as well, as long as they're not Comp I & II, and they are not in your AOS. Your past failures (F) won't have an impact on you being able to earn a bachelor degree with the Big3; the failed course credits just won't count. History it is a popular choice here, so I'm sure you will get more specific feedback on making a BA in History plan.

You need to compute your GPA, usually TESU requires a 2.0.
Here's a degree plan, not certain if they will take your World History/Western Civ combo, or if you will need to take World Hist 2 or Western Civ 1 to complete one of those. I would probably just take Western Civ 1 (CLEP, Study.com, SL), and then move World History 1 down to the History Electives.

I think I will do this then. And for the free electives can they be ones such as clep intro to marketing? And business classes?

Here's a link I put together with the options for the History degree at TESU:

If you feel like you're better at more modern history, you can do World History II through ed4credit or (I think) OnlineDegree.com instead of doing Western Civ I like dfrecore suggests (if it were me, I'd just do Western Civ I, but just wanted to mention the option).
