Hello!
This is my second time making a post like this, the below will be adjusted accordingly.
Your Location: California, USA
Your Age: 34
What kind of degree do you want?: Information Technology
Budget: No budget but would still like to spend as little as possible or close to it.
Commitments: My spouse and dog, I work part time from home.
Dedicated time to study: My 3 day work at home job is very slow-paced. I have as much time as needed to study during those 3 days and limited hours at night/weekends.
Timeline: Finishing the courses required for the degree as fast as possible would be ideal.
Tuition assistance/reimbursement: No.
Current Regional Accredited Credits:
Folsom Lake Community College
ANTH 310 Cultural Anthropology, 3 Units, C Grade
Current ACE, CLEP, or NCCRS Credits:
Sophia Credits: 6
Intro to IT, 3, 93%
Intro to Web Development, 3, 96%
Any certifications or military experience?
Coursera:
Google Project Management Professional Certificate
Google IT Support Professional Certificate - In progress
I've been wanting to do this for a long time and I thought I was finally ready and life threw me a major curveball but that has since been resolved. I'm ready to try again, I managed to complete 2 courses on Sophia and a certificate on Coursera. I'm halfway done with the Google IT Support Certificate and I'm trying to make my way through it quickly, before the CA State Library Program is over. I plan on working my way through what I can on Coursera before moving back over to Sophia and starting some Gen Eds.
I've made a degree plan, linked below, any feedback is greatly welcomed. I had a couple of questions noted in the comments. I've done a large amount of research and couldn't find the answers to all my questions. I originally made this plan back in January but have since adjusted it. Any help is much appreciated.

Thank you for taking the time to read this!

I've had a search but I can't find any relevant posts - I remember receiving emails from Sophia in the last month or two to say that some courses were being retired, but can't seem to find them - get far too much spam from Sophia!
Does anyone know which courses have been retired recently or are retiring soon?
Thanks in advance.

Hey, everyone. It's been a few years since I've popped on here!
I know many colleges and universities allow you to transfer 90+ credits. However, I'm wondering if any allow the application of over 90 credits to a degree.
I'm curious about the following scenarios
- Applying over 90 college/university credits I've already earned
- Applying 90 credits, but also allowing the completion/transfer of Sophia, Study.com, etc. credits on top of the initial 90
I get it - most schools want their chunk of change, so I know all institutions will require some classes to be completed through them.
Thanks!

| Using Edx MicroBachelors for Information Literacy |

Hi guys!
I am currently in the process of doing a double major at TESU for Computer Science and Mathematics. To fulfill the information literacy requirement, I was looking at the edx microbachelor's, but saw that it was only available for the computer science major. Will it be a problem in my case?
I am also open to the possibility of doing a bachelor in biology a few years from now, after I complete the double major. Will the microbachelor be valid in that case?
Thanks for the advice!

I thought this might be a good place to ask. Does anyone know of a voice reader for the Kindle app on Mac or iPhone? Reading 40+ page chapters of less than thrilling material gets to be drab. I would love if I could basically have an audiobook experience with my textbooks.

| SNHU Culmination Experience- Sophia PHL-316 not accepted |

I need to complete one of the following at SNHU in the Culmination Experience Gen Ed category:
Still needed: 1 Class in @ @ ATTRIBUTE = CLME or ENG 3@ Transfer = Y or 4@ Transfer = Y
or HIS 3@ Transfer = Y or 4@ Transfer = Y or IDS 3@ Transfer = Y or 4@ Transfer= Y or LIT 3@ Transfer = Y or 4@ Transfer = Y or PHL 3@ Transfer = Y or 4@ Transfer = Y or POL 3@ Transfer = Y or 4@ Transfer = Y or PSY 3@ Transfer= Y or 4@ Transfer = Y or SCS 3@ Transfer = Y or 4@ Transfer = Y or SOC 3@ Transfer = Y or 4@ Transfer = Y
I took PHL-316 on Sophia (Business Ethics) and it was NOT transferred in as Culmination Experience. It was transferred in as Ethical Thought and Equity even though I thought I had other classes that could have transferred to that.
I asked my advisor about it and he said PHL-316 does NOT transfer to Culmination Experience.
Before I go any further with appealing or whatever I wanted to post here and see if anyone else has noticed this no longer transfers, because it still says on the wiki that it does. https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/SN...ts_Roadmap
I have a community college class that I think will transfer to EETH therefore moving PHL 316 to Culmination. I just haven't completed that one yet so I didn't transfer it yet. Will it move automatically once I transfer it in?
