I took Intro to Business, Intro to Computing & heres to your health.
Those are all doable using IC! I will leave feedback in its specified feedback thread
Holy cow, you didn't step in- you jumped in! Good Job!
I read your test list- you really really really need to go to the college website and under "publications" you can open the pdf college catalog. Page 104 is the list of tests and what courses they are. You need to have this in your hands. Also, like mentioned, find out the break down of credits in each area- a duplication of credit is DUMPED, not put in free electives, so you don't want any duplication. You'll have to do major detective work to see where your UoP classes will fall- maybe you can post the titles of those credits here and some of us can make our best guess- but until you get your acceptance letter from TESC, they won't give you a transcript evaluation. Once your transcript evaluation posts to your "myEdison" account, you can email your adviser with the names of the tests you just took...if you ask nicely, he will plug them in as anticipated credits- and you should be all set. Technically, they will want the CLEP/DSST official transcript sent (unless you already requested it be sent when you took the test).
Congrats - it's a big first step!!
Oh- one more thing- since you already have financial aid, you'll probably want to at least consider taking the 6 online course requirements that are not available through CLEP/DSST- which means you could enroll now in 6 300/400 level credits, and test like crazy out of all the 100/200 level credits. Just keep taking the minimum (6) each semester to keep your financial aid.
