For Charter Oak students looking to complete general education or elective requirements through ACE-approved courses, Study.com has made several updates that may make it a convenient option to consider:
 
$95/month plan
Study.com now offers a $95/month plan that includes access to 70 ACE-approved courses — covering many Charter Oak gen ed, business and liberal studies requirements. Students can work on two courses at a time but can start new ones as soon as each is completed, which lets you take advantage of the self-paced set-up.
 
Open-book, open-note finals
All final exams are now open book and open note, and they’re no longer proctored. This makes scheduling simpler and can help reduce testing-related stress.
 
Faster grading turnaround
Written assignments are typically graded within a couple of days, which can make it easier to maintain steady progress toward credit completion.
 
Mobile learning app
 
Study.com’s new mobile app allows learners to complete lessons, take quizzes and track progress on the go — useful for those balancing coursework with other responsibilities.
 
Transfer equivalencies
Many Study.com courses continue to transfer to Charter Oak. It may be worth checking for updated equivalencies if you’re planning your next set of transfer credits. You can check out the courses that transfer here: https://study.com/college/school/charter-oak-state-college.html?adkey=eda9847cda664406840db845f2a02f6b
 
In short: With the new pricing plan, faster grading and unproctored finals, Study.com may offer a more streamlined path for completing transferable credits before your next Charter Oak term.

Study.com recently added Math 301 Linear Algebra, with an ACE credit recommendation of 3 credits at the upper level.

Hi,

I just heard about ETAMU.

I heard they take most Sophia courses,
and that this school might be as good as UMPI for faster degrees.

Any info on this school, or opinions???

Thank you!!!

For anyone mapping out a TESU degree, Study.com continues to be a good option for earning transfer credits and it has some updates worth knowing about. Here’s what’s new and helpful: 
 
$95/month plan: You can enroll in two courses at a time but can now take as many courses as you want per month under one flat rate. For anyone who works steadily, that can translate into finishing multiple TESU-eligible courses each billing cycle.
 
No proctored exams: All finals are now open book and open note, which simplifies scheduling and removes a common bottleneck for finishing courses.
 
Quick grading: Assignments are usually turned around within a couple of days, which makes it easier to keep pace and plan your transfers.
 
Mobile learning: There’s a new app that lets you complete courses, quizzes, and track progress directly from your phone — nice for fitting in lessons throughout the day.
 
Study.com courses continue to map cleanly into TESU degree plans, especially for general education, business and liberal studies programs. It’s also a good source for electives if you’re trying to minimize TESU tuition and complete more credits before residency requirements kick in.
 
If you’re planning your degree, it’s worth revisiting the Study.com equivalency list on TESU’s site. You can see details for Study.com courses that transfer to TESU here: https://study.com/college/school/thomas-edison-state-university.html?adkey=eda9847cda664406840db845f2a02f6b

I just found that Acacia University offers really affordable programs. Their Doctor of Business Administration is only $11K and the Doctor of Education in Educational Leadership is around $10K. Both programs are DEAC accredited. It’s definitely one of the more affordable doctoral choices.

I am finishing up my PSY degree at UMPI this term. I have loved UMPI and have moved through my courses very quickly. I love the model and the pricing structure.....the faster you finish the less it costs! 

I am now trying to find a suitable option for my masters. I really would love something more research based. My biggest interest is NAS babies/children and the affects of drugs in utero and how that presents in childhood/teen years. I realize that is fairly specialized but just so you know some background. 

I have found a few options or masters in early childhood development but I keep reading bad reviews. (capella, walden)

Does anyone have a program they could recommend somewhere along the lines of childhood development that is structured in a way I can complete quicker and pay less, that is still reputable?

If I was interested in another Bachelors and I wanted to do it at TESU, would I still be able to apply 114/120 credits towards it? I have completed a few Bachelors programs already, but I'd like to check out TESU's B.S. Computer Science program. I also anticipate people will ask "why"? Simply, because I want to.

There were a handful of free European credit sources that were once talked about on this board. But the older threads I've seen eventually devolved into lament that courses were no longer available or severely limited, or included a bunch of fees on the backend. Are there any still active/available?

Hello all, my wife is looking to obtain a bachelor's degree in healthcare administration at UMPI.  She currently has an associate of applied science so I know she will have some transfer credit but has anyone already put together a suitable degree plan for the Healthcare Administration degree?

I previously graduated from UMPI with a BABA in Supply Chain by utilizing this forum's help so I'm hoping to find a good path to lead her down.  Thanks in advance!

Hi!
The last time I transferred any courses from straighter line, I believe they had to go through ACE and then to TESU. Is that still the process? Thanks in advance!
