I noticed yesterday that all of the courses with statistics.com have expired on 09/30/2024 with ACE. Hopefully they are in the process of renewing, but in the meantime just be aware of it and hold off on taking classes with them. Not sure how that will influence the TESU Bachelor's in Data Analytics if these courses don't end up getting their ACE accreditation renewed.

I am applying for your space at umpi, but they require my college transcript, which I don't have. I wonder if there is an alternative option?
BTW I had thought about Pierpont AAS but I found it on 10/04. I was sad.

I wonder how the school knew he used AI. ChatGPT will answer the same question in different ways due to its algorithm to provide unique answers. In my last degree program I had to do peer reviews, and I was certain that some were written using AI. I pasted the text to ChatGPT and asked if those were written by AI, and it gave the same answer, "it was written by someone with advanced writing skills, or had help from AI". That's not proof.

To everyone on this forum that has helped me out, thank you so much for the guidance you've provided. I can happily say that I received my final grade in my last UMPI class (a 4)( and have finally completed the required coursework to finish my undergrad journey!

After trying (and failing) college several times between 2009 and 2016, I started again in January of 2024. I had somewhere to the tune of 30 RA credits and some military JST credits mixed in. Since then, I have completed 46 Sophia credits, 9 Coursera credits and 30 UMPI Credits. I also received my BOG AAS with emphasis in criminal justice in the spring and used that as springboard to keep me going.

I completed 10 UMPI courses in two YP terms, and I will graduate with a BLS degree with minors in criminal justice, history and political science.

It hasn't all been smooth sailing. It seemed like life got in the way as much as possible- a few bouts with COVID, a nasty case of shingles, and both parents dealing with some scary illnesses, but I made it through. This forum is truly a great place to draw guidance, inspiration and motivation from.

To anyone who is still plugging away at their degree- keep going! You will get through it and it will all be worth it at the end.

Thanks again, and take care.

The prestigious UNAM university has a separate language institute aimed at foreigners learning Spanish which are open to anyone and confer college credit. Usually classes are twice a week on zoom for 90 minutes and you write a short essay at the end about a topic you saw in class that interests you.

Usually courses are paid, but the UNAM is offering 2 cinema history and culture classes worth 3 credits each free of charge!

Hurry up and sign up because the class starts next week if you are interested! This class lasts 1 month, ends in late November.

Classes require around a B2 level Spanish, although it is possible B1 level might be sufficient for this class since it might be tailored at novice speakers.

Just for fun, I took some classes at University of the people, for their associate in computer science program.

I decided to transfer in my other credits to finish out the degree, and lo and behold, I only needed one final class to finish the program. After taking this final class, I applied for graduation.

This past week, I received an email from my "advisor" stating that they had made a mistake and that they had transferred in 16 credits, when only 15 are allowed and that they will be refunding a transfer class of my choice and that i will need to take another class to finish the program. 

Doesn't this come across really weird? Like how is it my fault that they incorrectly assigned transfer credit?

This degree program isn't super important to me, but it would be nice to finish it out and not take additional classes with UoP, as it is not the best experience, imo

My wife has an interesting dilemma and I'm looking for advice.

Approximately 30 years ago, she obtained a diploma from The Chartered Institute of Marketing (CIM).  This was equivalent to a Bachelors.

She is now trying to apply to apply to do a Masters in Legal Studies in the US and has to get WES to do what they do to let the schools she is applying to know it's equivalent to a Bachelors.  The program requires a Bachelors degree to be accepted.

The problem is that CIM has DELETED all records older than 25 years.  They even sent her a letter stating as such.  Apparently this was done due to various privacy laws in the UK.

She is reaching out to WES to see what can be done and she is talking to FSU (Florida State University) trying to explain what is going on and to see how she can move forward with her application.

All my wife has is an old letter from CIM that has the courses she took and the grades she got.  

Hah anyone been in this situation where your school records were purged and were you still able to get into grad school?
