Looking for the Easiest Study.com Upper-Level Courses for TESU Liberal Arts |

Hi.
I’ve decided on a TESU Bachelor’s in Liberal Studies with no concentration. I need 5 upper-level courses from Study.com before I enroll in the Info Lit and Capstone. These courses have already been approved by advising, and the ones I’m considering are:
White Collar Crime
Sociology of Work
Social Psychology
Organizational Theory
Psychology of Personality
I understand subjectivity and relevance of experience, but I’m looking for the easiest 5 UL courses that will definitely transfer into TESU as Liberal Arts credits. I’m using this degree mainly as a check-box for a promotion tool, so I don’t need a minor and don't particularly care about the subject matter. I'm not married to these courses I selected.
I love how helpful everyone is around here, so basically.... if you know of any other upper-level Liberal Arts courses on SDC that are easy and will definitely transfer as UL Liberal Arts credits, I’d really appreciate your suggestions and experiences. TY!

Fast-Track Online M.Ed. at JMU with Transfer Credits |

My husband has a partial scholarship for James Madison University. He wants to get his M.Ed. in Teacher Leadership fully online asynchronous, since he can only do online learning not in campus. He is in-state but travels often.
Program link: JMU M.Ed. in Teacher Leadership https://www.jmu.edu/coe/ltle/teachlead_masters.shtml
A little about him:
• Bachelor’s Degree: Lib Studies from a regionally accredited school.
• Experience: Teaching at a trade school and experience in tech, business, and leadership.
• Eligibility: The program is meant for public school teachers, but JMU confirmed he can apply since it benefits him in teaching.
• Family ties: His father graduated from JMU, so he has personal ties to the school and want to be an alumni. .
• Prior graduate experience: He earned a MAOL from UMPI last year.
Goal:
• He wants to finish as quickly as possible.
• JMU allows up to 10 graduate-level transfer credits. Since he could transfer 10 credits, he would have 20 credits left, which he could finish in two semesters.
• He is considering University of the People (UoPeople) or similar affordable, accredited programs for potential transfer credits to save money and accelerate graduation. He anticipates to start next year due to scheduling but would prefer to take these grad courses if it transfers.
JMU – M.Ed. in Teacher Leadership (30 credits)
Course Code Course Title
EDUC 625 Evaluation in Education
EDUC 630 Inquiry in Education
EDUC 641 Learning Theories and Practice
EDUC 642 Curriculum Theory and Issues
TCLD 640 Management and Problem Solving in Schools
TCLD 650 Leadership and Communication Skills in Education
TCLD 660 Collaborating, Teaming, and Leading in Schools
TCLD 670 Leading Curriculum Revision and Implementation
LTLE 695 Applied Research Design
University of the People – Master of Education (Graduate Level Courses)
Course Code Course Title
EDUC 5010 Education in Context: History, Philosophy, and Sociology
EDUC 5210 Learning Theory and Implications for Instruction
EDUC 5220 Curriculum Design and Instructional Decision Making
EDUC 5240 Creating Positive Classroom Environments
EDUC 5440 Assessment and Evaluation
EDUC 5470 Research in Education
EDUC 5710 Understanding Barriers to Learning
EDUC 5711 Teaching for Diverse and Inclusive Classrooms
EDUC 5810 Living and Learning Globally
EDUC 5995 Internship / Practicum
Do you think it’s possible for someone with a RA degree and prior graduate coursework to transfer 10 credits to JMU, leaving him 20 credits to complete over two semesters?
Thank you!

Anyone know of an applied CS Master's with no GRE requirement for someone with a 3.0 GPA in Software Development? Don't have the math for a theory heavy CS and needs to be a program that a large financial institution would consider "acceptable" to be enrolled in for an internship so nothing piecemeal will work. TIA

My daughter (19) is wrapping up her last term of college. She will be graduating from TESU with an AS in Bus Admin and a BA in Psych. (Yes - gobs of alt credit thx to this group and free PSEO from our state). She wants to further her studies, but never had any intention of pursuing psych further. In other words, she never wanted to be a therapist etc.
She took a break for the last eight months and participated in the Disney College Program, which she loved. She learned that she loved hospitality, and we are wondering what to do next. She is considering an eCornell certificate in Hospitality Management, but could earn an additional associate's or bachelor's (or master's???) in Hospitality.
Any thoughts or ideas are welcome. Her theory is to earn now, while she still lives at home and doesn't have the added expense of rent, car payment, etc ...
She prefers online learning and, while low cost is important, she has considerable savings and is not opposed to spending it for the right program.

Undergraduate Electrical Engineering degree online |

Hi,
Since I'm not very familiar with the U.S. education system, I was hoping someone could give me some insights about the following:
My ultimate goal is to earn an ABET-accredited degree in electrical engineering fully online, at the lowest possible cost.
I found an online undergraduate Electrical Engineering "upper-level two-year program" at Stony Brook University.
More info: https://www.stonybrook.edu/commcms/eeonline/
I read their requirements and it seems I have a chance of getting in, because my previous degree is not related to Electrical Engineering at all (it's a B.A. in English). (https://www.stonybrook.edu/commcms/eeonl...ns/faq.php)
According to their admission requirements (https://www.stonybrook.edu/commcms/eeonl.../index.php), the following courses need to be completed beforehand:
College Calculus I
College Calculus II
College Calculus III
Introduction to Differential Equations
An English composition course equivalent to WRT 102 (U.S. academic writing course), with at least a grade of C
My question is: are there any recommended (preferably inexpensive) online courses I could take as an international student to fulfill these prerequisites?
I came across some very low-cost online classes at New Mexico Junior College, but I’m not sure if they would be accepted.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Pell Grant---UMPI ????? |

Hi GUYS,
I may have asked a question similar to this,
but I am still confused.
If someone gets a Pell Grant for $7k+,
Does that mean for example,
that if you take 12 credits
at UMPI in 1 session for $1800,
mean you will get the full
Pell Grant?
Can you explain this a little?
Thank you!!!!
