10 years removed from school, 108 credits want to finish my business/finance degree

As far as what your advisor told you, I would ignore it, ESPECIALLY if they were one of the initial customer service reps that answer. Some of us on this site suspect they are an outside subbed call center. They never really have any expert knowledge. Always asked to be transferred to advising, or the registrar as they have better answers (not always correct either).

Long story short, there are plenty of TECEPs. The TECEPs you take need to be able to fit in your degree requirement. So if you take a TECEP and you already have credit, it should replace one of your existing credit slots.

As far as your ethics course, check back on my earlier post when we discussed your FINRA credit. Find the document, speak to the registrar or an actual academic advisor and see if you can get the credit reclassified into something finance related. Try seeing if they classify the one as Money and Capital Markets (FIN-361); it has a different course code and lets you get rid of the duplicate credit. For the ethics, search google and see if another college has a financial ethics course. Show your advisor the course and ask if your credit can be reclassified as finance related, maybe they will give you one of those "special topics" designation, something like FIN-299 or FIN-399. May be worth a shot. If not, accept them for what they are and move on.

PS: PM me your complete eval and I'll do you a one last favor and update the excel spreadsheet of courses.

thank you very much

as for the currency of completion, do you know if the school is strict on it? seems that they may want me to retake a course man 4722
