Penn Foster Courses and feedback requested

[cbrchris]

joel66, are you sure all these courses will transfer to Excelsior (assuming that's your goal)? The reason I'm saying this is that I don't think the following Penn Foster courses have been ACE reviewed yet:

FIN310 Corporate Finance
BUS400 Business Ethics

These are most likely newer courses added when Penn Foster just recently started offering their Bachelor program. I'm no expert here, but the names of the courses just jumped at me.

I was thinking the same thing when I saw those listed regarding not being ACE reviewed.

Penn Foster does have a course Financial Management that has been ACE reviewed and will satisfy the the Finance requirement.

For your courses you plan on taking at Penn Foster I would recommend registering for them all and do them at the same time, or maybe two at a time. I originally was going to do some courses with PF one at a time, but found it to much trouble. It always seemed like a long delay waiting for books to ship, then waiting for proctor test to ship, then waiting for proctor to be graded before they would ship a new course. Also you will have to pay $25 proctor fee for each course if you do them one at a time. If you sign up for all of them at the same time you only have to pay one $25 fee. Your proctor must be willing for you to test for how many courses you are taking. Usually 1 hour per course. You can download your proctor form from their website to have that approved right away so you have less of a delay.

I think Penn Foster also has a Managerial Accounting course that is approved. For the Ethics requirement you may want to try and take the DSST test for Ethics in America.

CSU-Pueblo course is a good one to do. There is no proctored test and it's work at your own pace.
