Help with Pre-MBA/ Finance courses for non-business major


Hi everyone,

I got my law degree from East Europe and I am currently residing in California on an F1 visa.

I am seeking admission to the MS in Finance for Fall 2023. All schools require Business and Math related courses as prerequisites. That's why I am looking for online courses to get credits so I can become eligible for the admission.

I found Outlier and Saylor. They both claim to provide ACE credits. Outlier provides transcripts directly from the University of Pittsburg since they have an agreement.

I was wondering if you guys have any other recommendations to get prerequisites done before admissions open. I want to do this in the best and cheap(Will be spending my savings into the Masters) way to have a positive impact in my application.

Thanks in advance.

Why take courses when you can just take tests for credit? Buy textbooks, use youtube and online videos and save the tuition:

Thank you very much Stuart.

Would you recommend other online certificates/courses to increase the chance of admission?  I will have a 5 months period starting from October. I would like to take those credits and do GMAT in that period. Anything else that might increase my chances would be great!
