You could finish with 9 hours in anything. TESU does not accept FEMA, but they do accept the free TEEX Cybersecurity series and three free hours of NFA courses.

Thank you for your help filling out all my credits into the required fields! This is so helpful!

Questions:

Do you think Saylor is easier than Straighterline? I dropped out of CSU Global due to cost, inability to pass Algebra on my own through Straighterline and they wouldn't allow me to transfer all my credits. I had enrolled into several Straighterline courses and found their testing to be completely different than what I'd studied in my book. Am I limited to Business Comm 300? Because I found COMM411: Public Relations (https://learn.saylor.org/course/view.php?id=20) on Saylor.org and would like to study that, but don't know if it counts because it's a 400 class?

So, to do those free TEEX Cybersecurity classes, I'd need to create an ACE account for transcript transfers? Is there a cost to ACE?

Are these the NFA courses you're suggesting? https://apps.usfa.fema.gov/nfacourses/ I can take any course that's three hours for transfer?

Thank you again for all your help, I really appreciate it!!
