Your first step should be to go to ALEKS and get your Intermediate Algebra class completed before ALEKS ACE accreditation expires. Search the forum for efficient ways to complete Intermediate Algebra, and be extremely careful as you take the placement exam, because you will get your credits with no further work if you get 70% on the placement test.
After that, apply for the Study.com scholarship:
Get Free Access to Study.com's College Accelerator Sponsored by Guardian | Study.com
Then take Personal Finance (required first course) and use it as a free elective.
After that, use those five remaining classes for your upper level courses, among which:
Business 113: Business Communication/ TESU Business 113: Business Communication 3UL
Psychology 104: Social Psychology/ TESU PSY-370 : Social Psychology 3UL
Psychology 105: Research Methods in Psychology/ TESU PSY-322 : Research in Exp Psych 3UL
Psychology 106: Abnormal Psychology/ TESU PSY-350 : Abnormal Psychology 3UL
History 108: History of the Vietnam War/ TESU HIS-351 : A History of Vietnam War 3UL
Biology 103: Microbiology/ TESU BIO-351 : Microbiology 3UL
Biology 106: Pathophysiology/ TESU BIO-316 : Pathophysiology 3UL
Or get approval for
Business 107: Organizational Behavior/ as TESU PSY-361 Organizational Behavior 3UL
Study.com also has a lot of education courses, and you could take those along with the Shmoop literature classes to make yourself a good candidate for English teaching jobs. Unfortunately they only count as free electives at TESU.
While you are waiting for your scholarship approval, go ahead and take English Composition II through Straighterline. You will also need to take Straighterline’s Intro to Communication (COM-108). In addition, you could take a science course through SL, or go to Saylor for the cost of a $25 proctor fee.
After those, you could take the free Ethics class from The Institutes.
Shmoop would be a good source for a lot of other general ed and liberal studies credits. You could take their three history classes and lots of literature (and math) courses for $90/ month.
Kay it looks like you've laid out a solid plan with very good suggestions! You are great at that!
