I graduated from Pierpont (AoE: Information Systems) in December and I walked across the stage last month.  I've been going back and forth about what I wanted to do next, and I had considered a behavioral health counseling certificate.  I think I was selling myself short because I am definitely capable of a bachelor's degree.  Anyway, I'm going for the bachelor's.  

I decided on TESU because I like what I've read about the BA in Liberal Studies degree.  I'm still disappointing my mother (who passed away 8 years ago) but at least it's not underwater basket-weaving.  I have a big interest in the social sciences but I can't narrow it down to Psychology or Sociology alone.  Even though I got the Pierpont AAS in Info Systems, I do not want to get a bachelor's in that at all.  I have been thinking about graduate school also.  I know it's putting the cart before the horse, but I saw the TESU MA in Liberal Studies with a concentration in gerontology.  

I looked at the degree plan and was overjoyed that I most likely will not have to take any more math classes.  It's a miracle I passed statistics at Sophia.  I've hated math classes since 1982.

I also looked at Excelsior and UMPI but I feel that TESU would be a good choice for me.  I thought about Texas A&M-Commerce for a second, too (my family attended the main campus in College Station, but I was the rebel who did not.)  Liberty wouldn't be good for me because I'm Jewish and I don't want to have to write papers about concepts in which I don't believe.

I'm still getting all my transcripts together to send to TESU.  I already sent my Credly one but I'm probably sending the ones from Pierpont and Houston Community College tomorrow.  My Pierpont transcript says I have 84 credits (almost all Sophia and TEEX.)  Yay for all that credit Nancy gave me for the TEEX classes.

I'm doing this TESU thing on financial aid.  I don't have the $ to spend on Study.com or E-Packs.  I might be able to do Coopersmith or TECEPS from time to time.  Getting the BA may take me longer, but whatever.  I want to remain focused on the goal.

Hey all, im looking for the best plan to go through sophia to get an a.a.s at Pierpont I would love it to have some relation to graphic design if possible. I will most likely go to umpi afterwards for a B.a.s.. Could someone help with a checklist of what i have left to do? Im not sure if the cal arts cert will do anything but its helped me get a few design related jobs. I've done an internship in design but wasnt in school then so didnt ask for any credit info.

all help is appreciated!

Hey Everyone,

After waiting on my Pierpont BOG AAS, I've finally enrolled at UMPI in the BAS degree program with (tenatively) a triple minor in PM, MIS, and BA.

I am working on my Sophia Spanish 1 class and have already completed the Biology classes required for the GEC, just waiting on them to be applied to my credits.

I have been working on a list of all the classes I can take that will fulfill multiple requirements and was wondering if anyone has tried this degree plan before.

A transfer credit report is attached as well as a spreadsheet with all the classes for the minors. 

My question is: Does anyone have any particular recommendations for which of these classes I should take and in any particular order? 

Obviously, taking the ones that fulfill multiple requirements across the minors is best, but im not opposed to taking stuff outside of that, including for the MAOL down the line.

Why D-Day Matters

https://www.dday.org/learn/

I'm torn between going to work or doing a PhD? I started my own business, and I paid for all the academic experience up there.
My age is 27.

HI, I am jie.  I am Chinese. I am 21 years old.  I have GED.   I want to apply UMPI  YourPace. Which program  can I apply?

Does this class now use the new CLF-C02 exam?  Or the old CLF-C01 exam?

Are most people here just doing the liberal studies degrees at UMPI? I originally chose a liberal studies with history minor. But my advisor pointed out that I could just do a regular history degree if I took 2 foreign language classes instead of 1. I've been warned off of taking any language courses at UMPI through this forum and it looks like maybe Sophia is the best option. But I'm intimidated by trying to do Spanish 1 and Spanish 2 when I'm barely eke-ing my way through Spanish 1. I feel like it will take me an eternity for just that one class. Has anyone taken language courses anywhere else? And has anyone taken Sophia Spanish 1 and 2 without any Spanish background? Thank you!

Hello, first let me appologize im just so lost on where to go and what to do at this point, BUT IM A GIRL ON A MISSION!

I am in WA State, USA and am a public school teacher. We are required to have continuing ED. credits, and need them for pay raises. I am looking to possibly change careers in the next few years, but still while I am teaching will need more cont.ed creds and or another degree. 

ME:42
HAVE: BAed from WGU (2012)
          MAed from WGU (2018?) 
          a CRAP TON of "credits" from SophiaLearns. (that so far are completely useless to me for continue ed or payraise)

My state has requirements for who can accredit schools ( OSPI Accreditation List ) 

SO WHERE IM AT, 

OPTION 1) Find a way to "credit bank" these so they will show up on an official transcript from ANY school that will bring them in (the more credits the better) even if that means I "enroll" in Ed College again for another?? BAed? 

OPTION 2) Find the FASTEST and CHEAPEST Dr. in ED that can be done ONLINE

I have bene going through these threads and I feel im drowning in amazing new info but am struggling to figure out how to accomplish EITHER of these? Any ideas?

Thanks in advance, overwhelmed so I apolozie for the rambling or missing info.

Friends, when I tried to complete quiz 13 of BUS 240, there were two questions that I couldn't get right. 
I tried more than a dozen times, but all failed. If I can't complete quiz 13, I will never be able to move forward. 
Can anyone answer these two questions?
