A bit lost and need some advice/help thanks!

so from reading more threads it seems like my option should be to sign up for ACE. Then sign up for ALEKS to get some math credits. What im lacking the most is Math credits. Then from there decide what transfer over. It seems like TESU changed alot over the years and its getting harder. Charter Oak State College seems a bit easier as they accept more credits going in. Though I seem to prefer TESU

Slowly! Im getting there!. Does these college credits from TESU or COSC ever transfer to another university or cuny schools like http://www.baruch.cuny.edu/

In brief and short - no. See below for details.

There's one thing you need to understand when transferring to another Univ such as the CUNY schools.
They're going to be looking at your transcripts from all sources, that being said, you did NOT take them from TESU/COSC.

You need to see if those CUNY schools accept ACE/NCCRS or whatever else you've taken (AP/IB/CLEP/DSST, etc)
Unless you have taken the courses at COSC/TESU, those will transfer as they are Regionally Accredited courses but expensive!
