My Journey: TESU BSBA

[Ideas]

Hopefully. I'm a bit crazy and abnormal.

+1, I have to agree...I am the same, I look in the mirror sometimes and say "you're a bit crazy and abnormal!"
And the other times I say - I get the job done, I am so awesome, I rock today and the day is great!

We only want about 7 graduate degrees, right? We're only a little crazy: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/showthr...?tid=28365

[Ideas]

Something came up, so I didn't get the TECEP done.

TESU finished adding my older transcript. It's so strange seeing "Complete" for Gen Eds and Core.

I did get credit for Bio II with Lab as I had been told. That's a relief. And I just realized they don't have one of my other transcripts. I guess I forgot to send it, so I'll go order that soon.

They didn't slot in my Marketing courses properly, which made me worry for a bit. I think it's fine.

I think I have an issue with the Biology requirements.

I think as long as you've got credit for everything, you can tell them to move it into the correct places afterwards.
It's a little confusing as I'm not sure what degree you're going for at this time, but keep trucking on to finish!
My guess is the Biology is for ASNSM Biology and the Marketing should be BSBA Marketing AOS.

[Ideas]

I should be good on Biology too.

My only remaining steps are:
Take CSU-Global finance exam
Order CSU-Global transcript when it's graded
Take a finance TECEP
Take other finance TECEP

Contact TESU to pay residency waiver fee

My next task is to "figure out" CSU-Global's site. I am already registered for the exam, according to them. I would like to get this exam out of the way first, before the TECEPs. (The TECEPs don't worry me as much because I've taken TECEPs before, and these are fully multiple-choice.) I should feel better about the CSU CBE when I get the syllabus and other details about proctoring.

I'm still feeling like maybe I should put off graduation for 3 (or even 6) months, but I would be slowing down my next degrees. 

The main reason in favor of delaying is that I could get the ASNSM in Computer Science added. I started a thread about this.

[Ideas]

I'm removing my Graduation thread from my signature, but I'm not sure I linked it here before. http://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/showthre...?tid=28118

I'm removing it because I could graduate if I wanted, but I'm now trying to add the ASNSM-CS, which is most likely going to push me until June. My thread about adding ASNSM-CS: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/showthr...?tid=28413

[Ideas]

I'm planning to take the Financial Institutions TECEP on Monday. I feel this one will be the hardest of the 3 remaining exams and need the most studying. I can't wait to get it done. 

I finally looked over the CSU-Global syllabus, and it's going to be easy based on some prior courses I took and prior knowledge from my life. I would have taken that one first, but I want to pay after I pay the residency waiver. Everyone is saying that CSU-Global grades within a week, not the 2+ weeks they say, so I should be good.

My Marketing AOS and Biology AOS got straightened out, and I'm not doing the ASNSM-CS. So it's one finance exam per week, starting Monday, and I'm done. (And ordering a transcript and paying the waiver.)

[Ideas]

I also want to add some general thoughts. 

I am happy with how quickly TESU has evaluated transcripts in general. I expected it to take longer due to the holidays, but the last 2 were quick. I am really happy with TESU in general, and hope to donate money one day.

Someday I would like to get a grad certificate through TESU. I hope they add more options  The grad degrees seems too expensive even if all credits were transfer/PLA, because of the capstone. They have some interesting degrees, but apparently the 6 cr graduate capstone would be $4008, but there are probably ways to get discounts. Or maybe I consider it sort of like donating 

CSU-Global drives me nuts with all their calls and emails. I said that I was sure I only wanted to take one CBE for now and one later, but they don't seem to care. It's funny because I read an old thread about CSU-Global not communicating enough. It seems like they're big on promoting their PLA and getting people enrolling, especially in the first week after you apply. I even asked to not be called, etc. However, that said, I am very glad to have the ability to take their exams at home. $250 is a good price, especially when you're getting UL AOS credit.

[Ideas]

I scheduled my Financial Institutions exam for Monday evening, and I'm not sure I can manage to study for it. I hope I can buckle down and get it done. I definitely want to graduate in March. I would feel more motivated if I could afford to take the CSU-G exam first. I haven't studied for a couple months now and have too much going on in life.

[Ideas]

I underestimated the Financial Institutions exam. I thought that it would be reasonable because of being multiple-choice. Now that I've really gotten into studying, it seems a lot harder (for me) than the Security Analysis exam.

I really want to graduate in March with the Finance concentration. What a mistake to put off the finance exams 

Edit: I found some more information on the exam, so I feel better. Except that I'm wondering if they updated the exam since some of those DegreeForum members took it. I'll put this off until I feel I can pass, but hopefully take it by the 23rd. I'm going to aim for the 19th.

Which CSU-G course are you taking?
