Are you trying to avoid tests? I see that you've chosen just Straighternline and Penn Foster courses along ALEKS. You can also test out of most of these requirements with DSST, TECEP, CLEP, and Uexcel ECEP.
Intro to Business will not count for Business in Society. You can either take the Business Ethics in Society DSST or find an International Business course somewhere. I thought Penn Foster had one. By the way, always check to see that the Penn Foster courses are currently ACE-approved. TESC will not accept them without ACE approval. For computer applications, I'm not sure about intro to programming being acceptable. It's best to ask after you enroll at TESC. For marketing, TESC will probably only accept Intro to Marketing or Principles of Marketing. I'm not even sure the Penn Foster course you listed is currently ACE-approved.
Thank you Sanatone for your response and the link. I am not trying to avoid test. I have asked on degreeinfo (and even written to College Board) about possible test centers here in Slovakia but none is available. Since I am not based in the US, I couldn't even get a sponsor for the FEMA credits then. I will gladly test out the remaining exams if I was able to find a center in Austria, Slovakia, or Czech Republic. The nearest centers to me seems to be the ones in England, Germany... which would cost me a lot when I calculate costs of travel, lodging, center fees, and so on. Thanks for reminding me about Uexcel. I am considering Uexcel since they have a Perason center here in Slovakia and neighboring Austria. For Tecep, I am still to find out if they have a center here for the exams. I will start thinking about possible marketing tests then since it is likely TESC would not accept what I have. For the TESC Computer Concepts and Applications/Introduction to Computers/CIS requirement, I listed two computer courses -1) Computer Applications(3) and 2) CSC 105--Introduction to Programming(3). Since you said you are not sure about Intro to Programming, would the Penn Foster Computer Application course do? I have credit in this too. Thanks
