This is what the BACS looks like, rather appealing. I spoke to an academic adviser and they seem rather willing to work with the .33 discrepancies and let me make up the work elsewhere or let me take more courses in those specific areas, then apply the excess credits to elective requirements in the case of general ed requirements. I'm pretty certain I'll be doing CS now, I'm currently in Systems Analysis and Assembly Programming and I'm still waiting until I finish the ANSM in Computer Science before my final decision but this is pretty good... Not looking forward to that capstone though.

I'm thinking for my electives I will mostly take business courses at straighterline, some options below:

Financial Accounting 3 SL Acct. 1
Managerial Accounting 3 SL Acct. 2
Business Law 3 SL
Princ. Of Management 3 SL
Business Communications 3 SL Bus. Comm.
Business in Society or International Management 3 SL
Macroeconomics 3 SL
Microeconomics 3 SL
Statistics 3 SL


That works right? With the electives I can shove anything in there based on what I've read. Right now I'm working on Business Ethics/American Government at SL to meet gen ed requirements at TESC. Seems like an OK set-up.
