  Pierpont Dual Enrollment Price Increase
Posted by: jg_nuy - 10-02-2024, 06:32 AM - Forum: Associates Degrees Discussion - No Replies

For those with students in Pierpont Dual Enrollment, the tuition for non-resident increased from $25 per credit to $60 per credit. Still a bargain but less so than in the past.

  Advice for Starting Out (again)
Posted by: Petra - 10-01-2024, 08:31 AM - Forum: WGU - Western Governors University Discussion - Replies (4)

Good morning. I'm a returning student working Help Desk. I'd like to finish a Software Engineering degree as quickly as possible. WGU seems to be a good option for me. What is the process for applying/transferring credits like?

For example, I have credits from 3 different colleges over time. I want to take as many Sophia/SDC courses as possible. Shall I take all the Sophia/SDC coursework first and then apply to WGU? Can I verify which previous courses will transfer before applying to WGU so that I'm not locked out from transferring new coursework? I'm not sure about the order of these operations. Any insight is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Your Location: Virginia, USA 
Your Age: 38
What kind of degree do you want?: Software Engineering (Java)
Current Regional Accredited Credits: 38
Any certifications or military experience? No
Budget: Small as possible
Commitments: None
Dedicated time to study: 14hrs/week (more, if necessary)
Timeline:ASAP
Tuition assistance/reimbursement: None

Hey everyone! 

I am starting UMPI October 28th and I have all 10 of my classes ready to go. My plan is BAS with the triple minor of PM, MIS, and management.  

My question is:
If I complete 4 classes towards MAOL and what I am reading is only 3 will go towards it, am I then taking one of these classes over again when I get to the MAOL Courses?

Thanks!

  TESU Liberal Arts Degree; What Study courses to take
Posted by: waterv1 - 09-30-2024, 07:02 PM - Forum: Degree Planning Advice - Replies (14)

I got this degree plan for a Liberal Arts B.A. from a TESU degree advisor back in '22, so please let me know if anything has changed. I have an A.A. in Liberal Arts from SUNY Empire.

Sophia Courses:

  • Environmental Science (Completed)
  • Visual Communications (Completed)
  • Art History II (Completed)
  • Introduction to Ethics (Completed)
  • English Composition II
  • Public Speaking
These were the suggested Study.com Courses, of which I need 5; one must fulfill the Civic Engagement category 
  • Business 313: Organizational Communication (TESU course COM-391)
  • Business 324: Managerial Communication 
  • Business 305: Leadership Communication
  • History 306: The American Civil War
  • History 311: The Holocaust
  • History 308: Causes and Effects of the Vietnam War
  • Psychology 310: Psychology of Personality
  • Psychology 312: History and Systems of Psychology
  • English 305: Advanced Technical Writing
  • English 301: Non-Western Literature
  • Sociology 305: Sociology of Work
  • Business 323: Organizational Theory (TESU course PSY-360)

And finally, the TESU Courses:
  • SOS-110 (Critical Information Literacy)
  • LIB-495 Liberal Arts Capstone
Which of these Study.com courses are recommended as the easiest/quickest? I want to avoid as much writing as I can. Also, how long would this degree plan take approximately? Thank you.

  Touchstones graded after subscription ends?
Posted by: wow - 09-30-2024, 06:34 PM - Forum: Saylor.org, Straighterline, Study.com, Sophia.Org, Coursera Discussion - Replies (3)

With study.com, if you submit all your assignments for a class before your subscription runs out, they will still go ahead and grade them, and then mark the class as complete if you have finished everything else (all the quizzes and the exam, if there was one). 

Will Sophia do that, too? Or do you have to have all your touchstones returned to you first (and if they're not, do you have to renew in order to get the grades and complete the class)?

So I was approved for graduation in August and told to pay the graduation fee by 10/04. Today when I logged into my ROAR to pay I found out that the option to pay is no longer there and it displays this information
"Select the transcript level and transcript type.[Image: web_stop_cascade.png]
Your transcript is not available due to holds on your record."

 when I click on Holds, it is showing me this

  Which MBA program
Posted by: faptaincrunch - 09-29-2024, 09:06 AM - Forum: Graduate School Discussion - Replies (5)

I've decided to get my MBA after having completed my undergrad at TESU. I'm stuck between Pitt state University that holds an AASCB accreditation and is $11970 vs Eastern University that holds an ABSCP accreditation and is $9900.
I'm looking for something that *sounds* good to an employer "they might confuse Pitt state uni with Pittsburgh PA which is geographically close* and also not too expensive. Does the accreditation matter? I haven't seen too much conversation around PSU. Any insight?
