Starting back up - tsimmns - 06-18-2021
So I sent my last transcript to TESU in 2016. At the time TESU would add the classes immediately, however the last transcript I sent over they said they weren’t going to add the classes to my evaluation until I was finished. Fast forward and now I’m seeing that one particular class for BSBA GM will not come in as UL, any way I still get upper level credit for it or am I out of luck? Also, posted below Is my evaluation and classes from ACE. Who can assist on what I need to do to finally finish seeing as how I might need 3-4 more classes.
So I’m trying to get some help on what courses I would need to finish along with the fastest way to complete them for BSBA GM. Principles of Finance. Think I had this planned from the PF course, does this course still satisfy this requirement. Business/Society, also had this course coming from PF. Does anyone know if these credits still transfer over?

Hey tsimmns, I forget, are you an active service person or a vet? Yes, you should setup a Credly account and email Penn Foster to send you your badges. If you have completed the courses at Penn Foster during the time they were ACE recommended for credit, you should have them transfer to your Credly account. Your best bet right now is to copy/paste your evaluation or screenshot the info to a PDF file and attach it to this thread. You may want to remove your personal details, we can provide you some feed back. Have everything including the "other courses" and "notes".

I’m National Guard sir. Also, you’ve been helping me since 2015 as that’s the catalog I’m on with TESU. I have not completed the courses there, only did the Strategic Management course there so it would count as the capstone. I’ll take a screenshot of my evaluation and maybe you can help with me with what I need and if there are any cheaper options nowadays. Also, I might need help as I can’t upload screenshots as they are to big and no idea how to make them into a pdf.
RE: Starting back up - bjcheung77 - 06-19-2021
Awesome, thank you for your service... you just need to complete Principles of Fiance at either Sophia.org, Davar, or Study.com, you can take the Business in Society (International Management) also at Davar or Study.com - I recommend taking these two at Davar for $99 both and $15/proctored exam. I also suggest listing the final course or two, so we can give you further suggestions.
RE: Starting back up - dfrecore - 06-19-2021
Principles of Finance can come in as LL, that's not important to come in as UL (and honestly, it wouldn't make a difference anyway, since it wouldn't count as UL, which all must be in the AoS).
More importantly, what is your concentration, and what courses do you have in the AoS?
Also, since it seems like you're not an active student any longer, are you sure you're still in the 2015 catalog?

I would assume I'm still in the 2015 catalog. I know at one time I read or I thought that once you locked in your catalog it was locked in, maybe that is for military or everyone I'm not sure.

I also have a ticket in with TESU to add the courses that I had sent over in 2017 that never got added to my evaluation. I could be out of luck as I see Organizational Behavior now comes in as LL, however when I took it the course was coming in as UL. As stated I know I will need the Business/Society and Principles of Finance course and I guess with all the new courses find out which route to go as I'm open to changing what I have planned and adding something else that is quicker and cheaper.
RE: Starting back up - bjcheung77 - 06-19-2021
Great set of updates! You just need to make sure of one thing, your active status as a student or not.
Once you're logged into the TESU.edu OSS, click onto My Profile. Copy and paste the Student Status/Start Date.
It will show if you're active or not. If you are NOT active, then it won't really matter as Active or not, you have 5 (yes five) years of inactivity.
Any time after that, you have to reapply, get reassessed. Even with the reassessment, you should be able to continue where you left off.

One more thing to note, I don't see the "other" courses or the "notes" section of your evaluation.
Please copy/paste those details and that gives me the entire picture of where you're at! Thanks,

Now I wonder if everything I did before goes to waste, especially the Strategic MGMT course from PF that counted as the capstone. I guess I need to talk to them Monday and get back into an Active status. Although, you said 5 years from the date that is showing on there? My information says this

So would I not need an evaluation since 5 years from 2017 would be 5/22?
RE: Starting back up - bjcheung77 - 06-19-2021
*ding* *ding* haha, that's awesome! You're good to go my friend! Now, I am still waiting on the final notes, i just really want to see what messages you have... it tells the story.
RE: Starting back up - dfrecore - 06-19-2021
The main issue is going to be whether you're still in the 2015 catalog, and if everything still comes in the same. I would make sure to get an updated evaluation once you know that.
Transfer in the SL and PF courses - although PF won't matter I don't think.
Then, go to Study.com and do:
FIN 104: Financial Management
BUS 120: International Business
Any UL Marketing or Finance course (MARK 303: Global Marketing and FIN 302: International Finance will have some overlap with BUS 120, and FIN 302 may have some overlap with FIN 104)
That should get you your Finance requirement, your International Business requirement, and your final UL course in the 3rd area (ACC and MAN are covered).
You should be done at that point.
I think the only thing left as a military student is that you either need 24cr at TESU, or else you have to pay the residency waiver. If you have any TECEP's or credits done at TESU, you might want to list those.
