Hello, I was hoping to get some advice on getting a degree in education from WGU. I already have quite a few of the general education credits from Sophia. I’m not really sure what the entire process looks like though. 
My goal is to become a teacher and I’d like to teach overseas in China. I’m also open to teaching here in the United States for a few years for experience. I’ve been reading through some of the threads on here and it seems WGU also offers a good route into a masters in education? I’m 27 years old and looking to make a career change so any help would be great. 
I found this on the Wiki: https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/WG...egree_Plan
The 19 core courses that have no place to take them, I assume are also to be taken at WGU alongside the 56 non-transferable courses?
Thanks a lot! Also I apologize for the cluster of text, I’m on mobile and it’s not letting me properly space it out.

Hello all,

Thanks to everyone who gave me answers when I started this journey of completing my degree. I'm happy to say that I'll be graduating from Pierpont with a BOG AAS with CJ concentration next month, and then I will be starting at UMPI in the summer!

So my question- while looking at the Yourpace application, it has several different minor options for BLS... specifically CJ and history. There's a few others that I didn't see months ago when I was started planning. These are distinct from the BA programs.

What I'm wondering- are these options new, and does anyone have any information on exactly what is required for the CJ and/or history BLS programs?

I have a hankering to do the history rather than management BLS. 

Thanks to all!

With reported plans to use the space as a community art cafe, the group had a notice posted to the door stating it had the right to occupy the venue, citing a law that protects squatters in non-residential buildings.

The squatters reportedly claimed that any attempt to enter the spot without permission was a criminal offense and could result in a prison sentence or fine.

I'm a student a U of the people, and I've seen a heavy use of AI generated content  It's so blatant that it's honestly becoming both frightening and depressing.
If you look at the uopeople subreddit, you'll see that even instructors use AI to respond to discussion forums and even grade students. So basically, bots are doing assignments, and bots respond to them and grade them, in the end it feel as if it's the bot that is going to graduate.

Is this prevalent in other online universities or are we just the worse of the bunch? will online degrees become worthless? is there no solution for that?

Just a curious thought, Could I transfer my sophia credits to two different schools?

For example if I transfer to one school, but didnt like it and wanted to go to another with the same sophia credit, how would that work?

or if I wanted to use the same sophia credit for two different degree's.

Budget: The cheaper the better. I am mostly looking for options to pay over time if possible
 
Commitments: Not much aside from work

Dedicated time to study: I can study as much as needed. I work full time, but I often have long periods of downtime. I can also study/work on things at home as needed

Timeline: I don’t have a major timeline, but I am antsy about doing things. Impatience is my downfall on this stuff

Tuition assistance/reimbursement: Not likely. Will almost certainly be selfpay/financial aid if possible

This is a very important concept most people don't understand, which is how to read properly.






Do any of you use any of these methods?

North Korean Defector Warns about Socialism in the U.S. and Describes Mistreatment of North Korean Defectors in South Korea and China.

Quotes:
"South Korea is so racist, they won't let a non-South Korean get a job as a waitress."

"Women are sold, then are rapped in China and usually die out within 6 months"

Now, don't get me wrong, many of these countries are great places to visit as a tourist, etc., but beneath the surface lie deep levels of institutional racism that hinder anyone who isn't exactly South Korean from securing a job there, except for a few roles such as teaching ESL.





Funny how there are no Twitter bios saying "end racism in South Korea" or "end slavery in China." Hmm.

Update: I'm looking to follow the degree plan for Data Analytics at SNHU, posted here https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/SN..._Analytics
SNHU have accepted 57 credits from my Daytona State College AA degree. I would be completing/transferring additional 24 credits through Google Data Analytics and Google IT Support Professional Certificate courses on Coursera, as well as 9 credits via additional courses through Study.com and Sophia. I would take the remaining 30 credits at SNHU to satisfy the residency requirement. See attached course plan and credit transfer audit. 
  SNHU Course plan.xlsx (Size: 7.19 KB / Downloads: 23)  
  Transfer audit.pdf (Size: 34.75 KB / Downloads: 26)

To be perfectly honest, this looks too good to be true, so I'm looking for some confirmation that this is a viable plan. I appreciate any advice you can share.

Alternatively, I would be interested in the Bachelor's in Mathematics degree if it's a better fit with my DSC coursework. 

Budget: I have a max of $10K saved up
Commitments: I currently work full time and can work on my studies part time or in the evenings/weekends.
Dedicated time to study: I can study 25-30 hours a week.
Timeline: Finishing the courses required for the degree as fast as possible would be ideal. I would like to finish within 1-1.5 years (12-18 months)
Tuition assistance/reimbursement: None. Paying out of pocket.
