Which of the Big 3 schools is best for me?

Ok so the micro and macro have C's not c minuses so they should count correct? Also I read on another thread on this forum Thomas Edison takes D's and has a genourous transfer policy is this not true? I am willing to go to other schools besides Thomas Edison but I would like a specific degree not liberal studies if I can avoid it. I do not mind putting in the work to complete it even this business degree plan does not look that bad to complete. I would like to be done as quickly as possible though so I am thinking human resources may be quicker? Liberal studies isn't completely out the window as an option I just really would like more specific so I can get a single teaching credential if I wanted one.

I missed the Micro and Macro courses, so yes, those will work.

TESU will take D's, but not in the Core or AOS, or for English I & II. Those courses specifically have to have a C or better. They will take D's in Gen Ed (except English) and Free Electives.

Human Resources will not be quicker, as you haven't taken any HR courses to put in the AOS. It's easy enough to switch to that if you want, but it won't be quicker (or cheaper, since one of the required courses has to be taken as a CSU-Global CBE). The only thing HR will do is switch out the 6 courses in the AOS for some different courses, not significantly change the degree. I personally am working on the HR degree, but I already had 3 HR courses to put in there before I moved to TESU - and then easily got the other 3 done.

I don't think a BSBA will make it easier to get your teaching credential at all - I think Liberal Studies is actually a better fit there. But I could be wrong. TESU's BALS is extremely flexible, and it has the advantage over COSC and EC in only needing 18cr of UL, rather than 30. I think the price will be similar at all 3 schools for the BALS.

Regarding speed, I think the thing that makes things go more quickly is if you actually like and have an interest in the courses you need to take for the degree. Slogging through a bunch of courses you don't like would, in my mind, make things go much slower. Trust me, I'm down to the last 4 courses, and I have absolutely ZERO interest in 3 of those, so I can procrastinate like a pro. If I didn't mind or actually liked the courses, it would certainly be a lot easier to get to them.

I revised the BSBA spreadsheet and included those 2 courses. And then, I created another page for the BALS. You are much closer to the BALS than the BSBA - 87cr used instead of only 61. You're left with only 11 courses to complete, rather than 20. And, the price to complete it is very similar.

I would apply to TESU and see where they bring in your credits. I'm a little lost on a few, but I think I'm pretty close. Then, apply to COSC and EC and see what they say. And, if you're interested in EC, you need to get partner pricing through POAG (I think KayV has info on that). It will save you a lot of money, so do that before applying.
