I was going to receive my Associates from Excelsior Next month, I just have to finish Principles of Management, which is no biggie. But, I already have close to 100 credits and with the new policy at Excelsior, I would have to take their Business Strategy course unless I switch right now to the bachelors progam. Being so close to a bachelors, my thinking is to go ahead and switch from the associates to the bacheolrs now and take the TECEP business policy exam before Sept. 1, 2008.
Given your current situation, I would highly recommend that you switch to the business bachelor degree now to avoid having to take Excelsior's Business Policy/Strategy course.
For the TECEP Business Policy exam, you are not required to take the other business courses first, whereas with the Excelsior course I believe you are required to do so. Personally, I don't think it would make a lot of difference if you completed Finance, Ops Mgmt & Statistics before taking the BP exam, but it would be a good idea to take Finance & Statistics before Ops Mgmt.
Hope that helps!
