TESU Degree Plan Class Requirements

[jacobvanhelden]

I am trying to put together a degree plan for a BSBA in Finance at TESU, and found this page for the class offerings for general education (https://www.tesu.edu/academics/courses/2...tellectual). 

My question is, do the classes I take through Sophia, SL, study.com, etc. need to match exactly one of the classes in the TESU section, or is there some leeway when it comes from transferring credits?  For example, for the Knowledge of Human Cultures section, would I need to find the exact same class on Sophia/SL/Study, or would I be able to just take any Humanities / Social Science course and assume that it would transfer? Specific example would be taking COM-299 and COM-231 on Sophia to fulfill the that section, even though those classes are not listed on TESU's site.

Additionally, does anybody know if Project Management (MAN-231) at Sophia would fulfill the Principles of Management section for my AOS?  Here are TESU's requirements for a BSBA in Finance. 

Also, I am referencing the previously transferable credits from Sophia through this cached site - http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/se...ophia.org/

Additionally, for the 17-20 elective credits, can that just be any class that I am interested in?  Or would they have to correspond with the classes on TESU's website? 

Edit:  One more questions - I will be taking College Algebra in the Intellectual and Practical Skills section.  In the math section, though, would Intro to Statistics (STA-201) qualify for the three credits needed? 

Thanks so much!  This website has been a godsend, and is the only reason that I am actually going to pursue my degree finally
