  TESU Application process.
Posted by: ASenna - 02-08-2025, 02:38 AM - Forum: TESU - Thomas Edison State University Discussion - Replies (4)

Hello everyone,

I hope everyone is having a good start to 2025. Unfortunately I was unable to to start the classes through TESU last year. I have spent the last 6 months back in England with my father, but I am now back home in Norway and ready to finish up.

I signed up to TESU last year as a "NONMATRIC Nonmatriculated" student. Here are some details from TESU:

Institution GPA: N/A
Degree: NonMatric
Majors:

  • NonMatric
Departments:
  • Free Electives
Catalog: 2024
Semester Hours (SH) Required:
SH Applied to Degree:
SH Remaining:
Overall Degree GPA Needed:
Overall Degree GPA Requirement Met:
Community College (45 cr for Assoc/90 cr for Bach Maximum):
Foreign Credits (45 cr for Assoc/90 cr for Bach Maximum):
ACE/NCCRS 45 cr for Assoc/90 cr for Bach Maximum):
Same Subject count (70 cr):
Alternate Catalog Year:

I have now signed up for the APS-1000-TE100: Medical Terminology  TECEP. It says that I am registered but not started. Here are the details:

Credits: 1 Credits, Pass/Fail only
Grading: Pass/Fail
Instructor: Ota Office of Test Admin
3/3/2025 to 5/25/2025
Time: TBD
Location: Ops*205/870-8122 TBD

I have sent the first transcript from Credly for the Sophia classes but can't see anything on my TESU account. I am wondering if I am missing something? I am working on the Metropolia transcript now and would like to have them both on the system so I know which classes I need take to complete the degree.

Have a great day.

  Masters in Project Management University of the Cumberlands
Posted by: newdegree - 02-07-2025, 03:46 PM - Forum: Graduate School Discussion - Replies (6)

So, my job is willing to pay for me to go back to school to study for a master's in project management but only offers $350 per credit. I found that the University of the Cumberlands offers a 31-credit degree. I wondered if anyone has any experience with the University of the Cumberlands. Does the school require you to incorporate religious text into your work, like Liberty University? I read before that they don't. I am also curious to know the average workload for a graduate-level course (how long papers are and if there is a lot of reading, exams, and quizzes) for any courses anyone has taken in the past. Also, has anyone ever taken a comprehensive exam with the University of the Cumberlands? What are they like? I am curious. Lastly, I have some graduate-level project management credits from over 10 years ago. Does anyone know if the University of the Cumberlands accepts old graduate credits? 

I am attracted to the University of the Cumberlands because they offer 7 week online courses, which I can complete fast if transfer credits are accepted.

  Very confused
Posted by: basilia - 02-07-2025, 02:48 PM - Forum: UMPI - University of Maine at Presque Isle Discussion - Replies (1)


Hi all. I’m looking at UMPI to study (whichever option is cheapest) anything related to IT that will help my career like Business Management, Project Management, etc. I’m very confused because “Management” (https://www.umpi.edu/yourpace/academic_p...anagement/) lists Project Management & Information Systems Concentration, BBA, also Project Management Minor (BAS/BLS) and Management Information Systems Minor (BAS/BLS). 
I have the BOG degree from Pierpont. Any advice is appreciated. Thank you in advance. 
I have:

Introduction to Information Technology 

Visual Communications 

College Algebra

Macroeconomics 

Introduction to Business

Introduction to Statistics 

English Composition I

Human Biology 

Human Biology Lab

Project Management 

Introduction to Relational Databases 

Google UX Design Professional Certificate

Workplace Writing II

Workplace Communication 

Introduction to Web Development 

Principles of Management 

Art History I

Introduction to Ethics

Art History II

Google IT Support Professional Certificate 

CompTIA IT Fundamentals 

CompTIA A+

CompTIA Linux+

CompTIA Security+

CompTIA Cloud+

CompTIA CySA+

  History Major & Transfer Credits Questions
Posted by: slreed - 02-07-2025, 11:34 AM - Forum: UMPI - University of Maine at Presque Isle Discussion - Replies (4)

I’ve already have Transfer Credits Report and my Degree Plan Progress. I transferred 79 credits from 4 year colleges I attended. 


Here’s what I have left to complete:

Gen Ed

2D Eng 211 or Art 108

3A Math 101 or 140

3B Math 101 or 140

3D Env 110

History
21 credits of UL courses

Gen Electives
9 credits

1. Would I be able to complete my Gen Ed courses through Sophia and transfer them in? That would make my total transfer hours 91. I know I would still need to take 30 at UMPI. 

2. What EASY General Electives do you suggest for my 9 credits? 

3. From what I’ve gathered, my 21 History credits will be basically whatever is currently offered which will fulfill that requirement and my advisor will be able to tell me those courses. Does that sound correct?

4. My goal is to finish the Sophia Gen Ed courses over the next few weeks until the beginning of the Spring term at UMPI. Then take the 10 courses remaining to finish my degree during the Spring term at UMPI. Thoughts? Suggestions? Advice? I’m currently waiting to be assigned an advisor.

Thank you for any advice or input.

  Credly won't show earned badges... Help!
Posted by: SCYankee - 02-07-2025, 08:05 AM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (2)

I'm not sure where exactly to post this thread, but since we're all familiar with Credly by now, maybe some folks here have an inside track to getting assistance.

These badges are for my son. He has earned several NCCER badges through his high school construction program. They show clearly in his NCCER account, but not in Credly. We set up his Credly account a year ago in preparation for him to earn these badges.

1. Yes, both account use the same email. (I have sent screenshots to NCCER and Credly to prove this.)

2. NCCER says they cannot see a Credly account, and so there is no way to send them.

3. Credly kept giving me a canned response to contact NCCER. I asked to elevate the issue, and a person named Sydney Roberts joined the discussion (presumably as a supervisor) and said he will get to work on it directly with NCCER. Since then, I haven't gotten updates or responses.

The Credly FB page shows no responses to any comments. Nor did anybody reply to my FB communication.

Does anybody here have any other way to contact Credly or get help?

Thanks.

  National Black History Month

https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefings-statements/2025/01/national-black-history-month-2025/

So distracted by so many other issues, I missed this.

I'm thrilled to see it.

As the DoD is an Executive Agency, I expect Secretary Hegseth to get with the program. 

Too often Black History is Hidden History. I am looking forward to enrolling in summer classes on the Harlem Renaissance. Just now, I am trying to read about some of the big names.

  Online Degrees Out of Reach: Fewer than half of students graudate in 8 years
Posted by: LevelUP - 02-05-2025, 06:28 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (1)

Since this article covers most of the colleges we recommend, I thought it would be good to share. 

Online Degrees Out of Reach?

Fewer than half of students at the largest nonprofit online institutions earn a degree after eight years. Is it an unfortunate reality or a cry for accountability?

There is a lot of context to consider in this data. Thoughts?
