  Is joining the Space Force out of reach for me?
Posted by: EliEverIsAHero - 01-16-2025, 12:39 PM - Forum: Military Discussion - Replies (2)

I contacted a recruiter about this out of curiosity - I'm still of age to join the Space Force, but I'm worried that my history of autism spectrum disorder, medicated anxiety, and past orthopedic surgery might get in the way. I am also in my 30s which isn't exactly the standard age at which a lot of people enlist or seek out a commission. 

If I knew 100% it were personally tenable for me, I would jump at the chance to serve in the USSF. 

Anyone here knowledgeable about this?

  Question re: CapTech's programs in Counterterrorism and Intelligence/Global Security
Posted by: EliEverIsAHero - 01-16-2025, 12:27 PM - Forum: Doctorate Degree Discussion - Replies (4)

I've applied to both PhD programs on account of hearing that CapTech (Capitol Technology University) follows a dissertation-only model (but doesn't require a concept paper/proposal as part of the application like UK dissertation-only programs) as well as that it's possible to do a 3-paper/3-article dissertation.

But I have some questions about this: they require 60 credit hours at an expected pace of 6 credits per term, but is it possible to fast-track your degree there if you complete your dissertation or three articles within your first 2-3 semesters? Anyone know how they work this out? 

I also asked their admissions counselor/advisor based on hearing on the other degree forum that they allow 42 transfer credits, but she advised me that this only applies to credits from a (presumably unfinished) doctorate, not from a Master's degree. This part somewhat frustrated me as I am applying with two Master's and a Graduate Certificate in a closely related field (I was told the Graduate Certificate credits wouldn't transfer).

What have experiences here been with Capitol Technology University in this regard?

  UMPI Questions - Application & Courses
Posted by: Bm1992 - 01-16-2025, 07:55 AM - Forum: UMPI - University of Maine at Presque Isle Discussion - Replies (21)

Which classes are more comprehensive? Study.com or UMPI? Study courses are taking me a week to finish, I take notes on everything then review before the exams. Are UMPI classes similar?

Question BBA in PM MIS vs BAS with a minor in PM and MIS
Posted by: nicecoolego - 01-15-2025, 10:29 PM - Forum: UMPI - University of Maine at Presque Isle Discussion - Replies (5)

I've been working on a BAS with a double minor in PM and MIS for a while now. I am 4 classes away from finishing all my requirements and I have an AAS with an aoe in mis from Pierpont. However when I looked at the program options for this year I found new programs that weren't available before one being a BBA in PM MIS. Does anybody know about this option? Is it better than pursuing the BAS with the those minors?

  TESU Application Questions
Posted by: FungiTao - 01-15-2025, 12:47 PM - Forum: TESU - Thomas Edison State University Discussion - Replies (5)

Hi all,

Finishing up my Sophia courses and I'm looking to apply to TESU before starting Study.com courses.

I just had a few queries surrounding my application and eligibility on credits:

  • What's the process of transferring credits from Sophia to TESU?
  • Does taking a TECEP exam count as an "enrolled" student?
  • Do I have a time limit on when I have to transfer all my credits?
Thanks!

  Most cost effective way to use Study.com?
Posted by: FungiTao - 01-15-2025, 12:37 PM - Forum: Saylor.org, Straighterline, Study.com, Sophia.Org, Coursera Discussion - Replies (4)

Almost finished my Sophia credits and now moving to Study.com next month.

I remember seeing a strategy on utilizing Study.com where you pay for the basic membership without the proctored exam, and once finished, you switch to the college-credit membership and take the exam. Supposedly you get refunded for the remaining part of the basic membership that you didn't use? Does anyone have any experience with this? 

If the above is correct, would it be advisable to first do all the quizzes and obtain the knowledge, and then take the proctored exams when you're ready? (I'm aware of the 2 free proctored exams rule)

Thanks!

  New Sophia Course soon: Public and Community Health
Posted by: jg_nuy - 01-15-2025, 12:23 PM - Forum: Saylor.org, Straighterline, Study.com, Sophia.Org, Coursera Discussion - Replies (8)

Sophia keeps coming out with new classes. The next one on ACENET is Public and Community Health.

Level Credits (SH) Subject
Lower-Division Baccalaureate 3 Introduction to Public Health

Objective:
The course objective is to provide students with the foundational aspects of public health, from its historical roots to its contemporary challenges and profound importance in the 21st century. Students unravel the core functions and essential services of public health and examine the complex factors that influence health outcomes, especially within vulnerable and marginalized populations. Through the introduction to epidemiology and the role of data, students gain insights into how data and information shape public health decisions and interventions. Students delve into the broader scope of national and global health, exploring issues of health equity and the global challenges facing populations. Students navigate the intricate landscape of U.S. and global health care systems, understanding their financing, evolving services, and strengths and weaknesses. While students explore community health, they learn strategies for promoting well-being and healthy behaviors, the art of community organizing, communicating and marketing health, and evaluating program effectiveness. Finally, students confront the intersections of policy, law, and ethics, addressing their powerful implications for public health initiatives and the future of our communities in the face of emerging challenges such as global warming and public health emergencies.

  BABA M&L Timeline
Posted by: Zacharysa - 01-13-2025, 11:32 PM - Forum: UMPI - University of Maine at Presque Isle Discussion - No Replies

I know I have to take 10 courses at UMPI, with what I have in the attachment so far, is it a realistic goal to do all this in one term and graduate in May? I plan to go for the BABA in Management and Leadership. This will be paid for by the military, but I am trying to rush to be done with my degree before I apply for Officer Training School this summer.
