  Reselling ENEB program?
Posted by: lincolnlawyer - 5 hours ago - Forum: Graduate School Discussion - No Replies

Haven't seen much discussion on how to actually do this, and the academic department at ENEB is taking long.

I didn't anticipate the increased workload this year and ended up with too many ENEB programs than I can finish.
Is there a way to resell one of the programs I'm enrolled in? As in, can I transfer one master's to someone else while keeping the rest?

Would love to hear from someone who's actually managed to do so.
What was the process like? How much did it cost?

  Degree planning advice/input wanted
Posted by: AnonymousPoster - Yesterday, 08:21 PM - Forum: UMPI - University of Maine at Presque Isle Discussion - Replies (2)

I'm adding an additional minor and trying to decide the best/easiest path. Currently, I'm enrolled in BUS 350 and contemplating dropping it to take it at Sophia, instead. If I do that, I'll have to take BUS 240, BUS 343 & BUS 469 at UMPI. If I keep it, I'll need to take BUS 240, BUS 343 & BUS 350 at UMPI. Either way, I *must* take 3 courses at UMPI. 

The reason I'm thinking about dropping 350 and taking it at Sophia is because I heard that the Sophia version is much easier than UMPI and BUS 469 is a much easier class than 350. Is that true?

I'm currently taking Spanish and Biology at Sophia, so it wouldn't be any additional $$ to add 350. Thoughts??(I'm getting a BAS, so not as much flexibility as the BLS.)

  Study.com CS transfer credit not accepted? Comp Science 109: Intro to Programming
Posted by: abull08 - Yesterday, 03:26 PM - Forum: TESU - Thomas Edison State University Discussion - Replies (4)

TESU Degree: BA in Computer Science 

I've been in contact with the academic advisors via email to get approval for classes transferring in from Study.com to TESU. I just wanted to have it in writing before I invested all this time doing class work. For every class I inquired about, I received a bullet point like the one below:




[*]Study.com: Introduction to Programming transfers in as COS-1110, 3 credits (via ACE transcript, if taken prior to 09/30/24) and may be used to fulfill the Section A, Programming requirement



This specific class from study.com "Comp science 109: Introduction to programming" they are saying can only be transferred in if the class was completed before 9/30/24.

I haven't done the class yet, and when I messaged back for them to clarify on this/ to see if there was a way to solve this problem they responded with:

"You must complete the courses by the indicated date to ensure we'll be able to apply credit to your degree program. It'll be fine if the official transcript arrives after the listed date, but the courses must be completed before the ACE expiration date."

And:

"Yes, the date for the Study.com course, Introduction to Programming, is correct. If you didn't complete it by then, TESU won't be able to award credit in transfer."

Has anyone had a similar issue and how have you got around this issue. It's kind of annoying because every other class in the BA Computer Science Area of study was able to be transferred in because the expiration dates or "if taken prior to" dates haven't passed yet. I feel like the academic advisor people are missing something possibly, because I've heard before they can be hard to work with. 

Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

  TESU Final Push to Graduate - need help with final class / degree combination
Posted by: CreativeLearner - Yesterday, 12:11 PM - Forum: TESU - Thomas Edison State University Discussion - Replies (2)

Hi all! Thanks to the help from this forum, I transferred a bunch of old credits to TESU about a year ago and have been working on my degree plan since. I originally planned to take more time to finish but life has changed and I now need to wrap it up by the end of this summer. To save money, I need to take the 15 credit semester option so I am trying to figure out the best way to get the most useful bang for my buck. Currently I just have SOS 1100 plus a capstone left to complete a BA in art. I would need to add 3 filler classes to meet the 15 credit requirement. I also have enough credits to add an Associates of Science in Applied Computer Studies if I am willing to take an additional AS capstone as part of my semester. I am also very close to a BA Liberal Studies Computer Science. To add that in I would only need Data Structures and Computer Architecture in addition to the capstone and SOS 1100 plus filler credits. Can anyone advise me on the most useful path balanced by the most sane path? My strengths lie in writing, reading, research based assignments and I am a great test taker. My math skills are less strong. I took a community college level algebra class and got an A but only with intense studying and lots of tutoring. Currently I am thinking to definitely finish the BA ART. I’m tempted to try for the associates in computer studies so that I could at least leave the door open to get some certifications in the future / a basic entry level IT job. I think the additional BA in Computer Science might be unrealistic / not really be worth the pain but it’s seems too close to not at least consider it. Any advice or thoughts would be greatly appreciated!

  Houston Community College and Sophia Learning Partnership Concluding May 14, 2025
Posted by: RaiponceRapunzel - Yesterday, 11:11 AM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - No Replies

I wasn’t sure if this fits in the Sophia.org section, but Houston Community College is ending their partnership with Sophia Learning in May of this year. They had a partnership with the university of Phoenix creating degree pathways.

https://www.hccs.edu/support-services/tr...ce-credit/

https://hccs.sophia.org/

I’m not sure if this partnership was ever mentioned on here, but I think it’s a shame, HCC is ending it. There will be less opportunities and choices for people to save money for college and university. I hope they can see in the future or so, there’s a market and need for this. But ultimately, it’s definitely a revenue and business decision for money. I don’t fault HCC, but still.

  Online MBA - ACE American College of Education - any experiences?
Posted by: effexbiz - 03-12-2025, 04:38 PM - Forum: Graduate School Discussion - Replies (3)

Hi all,
I was thinking of starting an online MBA last year, and I'm continuing research now. I work 2 jobs that I love but are time costly lol so online (asynchronous classes in particular as my "off" hours are sometimes odd) is a must for me. Money is another huge factor. My dream would be to keep it under $15k as I'll be going out of pocket. 

I'm familiar with WGU and LSUS; those are two I'm keen on. Someone just sent me a message that the American College of Education has an MBA for just over $8k USD. Anyone have experiences with this school? I saw some reddit posts that said ACE can be geared toward teachers; I'm not a teacher but I work in a somewhat similar realm with kids books.

  Study.com placement tests and quizzes
Posted by: vetvso - 03-12-2025, 01:40 PM - Forum: Saylor.org, Straighterline, Study.com, OnlineDegree.com, Sophia.Org Discussion - Replies (2)

Has anyone ever mapped how the Study.com placement tests are connected to interconnecting courses? I have noticed that the tests do impact other courses within similar fields. It also appears that if you complete a quiz, it might create a similar outcome.

  Coursera Certificates for Upper Level Credits Bachelors of Arts in Liberal Studies?
Posted by: newdegree - 03-12-2025, 12:14 PM - Forum: TESU - Thomas Edison State University Discussion - Replies (4)

I couldn't find the answer to a random but good question: Has anyone had success using Coursera certificates to satisfy upper-level requirements at TESU, specifically in the Liberal Studies program? I see some certificates grant 300 & 400 level credits at TESU but can't seem to find any information which ones will be accepted or if they have been accepted at all towards the degree. 

300 & 400 level credits:
Google Cloud Cybersecurity Professional Certificate : CYB-4210 Cybersecurity Risk Analysis & Mgmt
Google Cloud Data Analytics Professional Certificate: CIS-3110 Database Management, CLD-4300 AI, Machine Learning, and Big Data in the Cloud, and CYB-4500 Cloud Computing
