I'm a bit confused, does TESU take Saylor's Software Engineering (CS 302) as upper level or lower level for the CS degree? The wiki degree plan says it does, but Ive seen comments on here to the contrary. If not, what's a good alternative? Thank you!!

Reading the threads on this forum, and also from my own emails, it seems like Pierpont is no longer responding to new applications or requests for their BOG AAS degree, at least from members here. Perhaps they'll want to be focusing more on WV residents going forward, which is understandable given their focus.

For those of us who managed to get their AAS degrees - it was good while it lasted!

UCA PdD in Leadership Tuition Price Hike for Fall 2024.

Tuition used to be $325 per credit hour, as of Fall 2024 it is now $349 per credit hour. Details here: https://uca.edu/online/

What is the equivalency of ASU Mat-142 College Mathematics at TESU? It is not on the Wiki. I am guessing that it might be Mat-105 Applied Liberal Arts Math.

Also, does the CLEP College Math still come in as 6 credits (Mat-102 General Math I and Mat-103 General Math II)? I think I vaguely remember reading somewhere that you get less than 6 credits for it now. 

Last question: Our son is considering to take E-3 Quantitative Reasoning: Practical Math at Harvard Extension School. With the Lowell Scholarship for high schoolers, it would cost $500 for 4 credits (not cheap, I know, but useful for the experience). 

Does anybody want to take a guess of how it would come in at TESU?

"This course reviews basic arithmetical procedures and their use in everyday mathematics. It also includes an introduction to basic statistics covering such topics as the interpretation of numerical data, graph reading, hypothesis testing, and simple linear regression. No previous knowledge of these tools is assumed. Microsoft Excel is introduced and some practical uses of it are demonstrated. Recommendations for calculators are made during the first class."

Not sure if I am in the right sub form for this. But I have a very elementary question about Coopersmith. What are the exams like generally? Multiple choice? Essay? How long do they take?

I'm not finding any of this information on the CooperSmith website.

Hi All,

I have a Bachelor in Computer Science, an MBA as well as a PhD in Business Administration, yet I want to keep learning and want to get a Bachelor in Psychology. After reading hours across this forum and the wiki, I think I got the "general understanding" how the concept works. But before I get started and enroll (likely with TESU), I would like to get the advice of the experts.

Your Location: Germany
Your Age: 41
What kind of degree do you want?: Bachelor in Psychology (BA or BS, doesn't matter)
Current Regional Accredited Credits:
None, or rather, I'm not sure. I have ECTS Credits from my degrees in Europe / Germany. But I assume that Computer Science (Bachelor) and Business Administration (MBA and PHD) wouldn't allow me to transfer anything towards Psychology.
Current ACE, CLEP, or NCCRS Credits: none, see above.
Any certifications or military experience?: none
Budget: I really want to this to be as "cheap" as possible, ideally around 3k USD.
Commitments: I work full time and have a family.
Dedicated time to study: around 2 hours per day
Timeline: open ended - no problem if it takes more than a year or two or even three...
Tuition assistance/reimbursement: none

Thank you all for any advice and creative ideas.

Andre

Any thoughts on where else I can pick up these courses for TESU?

1. SOC-3220 Cultural Diversity in the US (3 Credits)

Looks like TESU accepts Sophia's and Study.com's as a LL Philosophy Course - PHI-1300 Introduction to Critical Reasoning.

For those who completed two bachelors at the same time at TESU: Was your 90 credit limit for ACE/NCCRS applied across the combined degrees or was it across each degree, one at a time?
[Resolved] It is currently a limit of 90 combined ACE/NCCRS across each individual degree.

Martin Luther College (MLC) in New Ulm, Minnesota, operated by the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod (WELS), is introducing a subscription-priced competency-based education program enrolling for Fall 2024. The target audience is adult learners seeking to become teachers especially in WELS schools.

The first component of the program is a theology education minor of six courses (18 credits). They state students will complete two courses in every 15-week term. Whether larger (or smaller) course loads per term are possible is not described in their announcement.

When the first cohort finishes this six-course sequence, MLC "hope[s] to have approval for the next component of the program, so they can seamlessly move ahead!"

Tuition is $1700 per term.

Hey guys, does anyone know if Sophia.org is still on Perkspot for any company? I found out my Instacart Shopper account is still active although I haven't used it in several years and they offer Perkspot to their Shoppers. I signed up for it through the link in the Shopper portal but did not see Sophia listed as an option. Is Sophia only available to certain companies or maybe not available at all anymore?

Thanks!
