Default Thinking of transfering to Excelsior...

Okay...I am thinking of transfering to Excelsior from Strayer. I have officially applied and I am in the process of transfering in my prior schooling. I have about 60 hours of random credits, mostly in music, from my 2 years at another college.

I am going for the BS Business-Finance degree...I just completed the DSST Principles of Supervision...while I am waiting for all of my credits to be transfered in...what test should I go for next that I will definetly need and likely not get credit for...remember, I have no prior busines classes, took a couple of math, one english, some lit classes. I just don't want to study for something that I'm not going to need. Any advise would be appreciated...

You could take Business Law, Marketing, Management for CLEP and Finance, Financial Accounting, Intro to Business, Personal Finance, Management Information Systems for DSST. As for the math portion, I think you need up to Pre-Calculus or higher. I could be wrong though. Good Luck!

I achieved much of my credit through music as well--though not as much as you. Check the info I just posted in response to a similar question and see if any of it is helpful to you. Click here!
