I have quite a few IT and cybersecurity certificates from working professional and was wondering if any of them would transfer to the BACS @ TESU. I believe the consensus is that TESU is not gracious when accepting certs but remain optimistic.

Sec+ transfers as CYB-2200 but how does that relate to the Comp Sci BA at TESU?

The Savvy Coders bootcamp was a 12 week course. Do you think it's possible to get it transferred as "Intro to Python Programming"?

More than half of the certs are not listed on the TESU site and I sent PLR@tesu.edu an email 3 weeks ago and they still have not replied. Admissions has been less than helpful. I recently sent the "transcripts" to transcripts@tesu.edu and am hoping to get a better response. Listed below are the certs I have for reference.

ISC2 - CISSP
Scrum Alliance - Certified Scrum Master
CompTIA - Security+
Microsoft - AI-900
Microsoft - AZ-900
Savvy Coders - Data Analytics and Python bootcamp
Cyber-AB - Certified CMMC Professional

Happy Saturday all,

I have been on my degree hacking journey since earlier this year and just about ready to start at UMPI, just waiting for one more transcript to be received by them and then be evaluated. My goal is to share what transferred in and my data points once I start. My determination has encouraged my wife to go back to school and get a bachelor's degree as well.

We are in Texas and have recently been looking at TAMUC for her especially since she already has an AS in Health Services, so the BAAS in Health Services Administration program is the one she is interested in as it will further the career she is already in.

With that said after looking through various posts on here and other sources I haven't been able to find much information on hackability on this. I have seen plenty for the ORGL degree, outside of the general education information on that one, it doesn't offer more that we can use. I imagine with her having an AS already she will at least check off most if not all of the general education and some electives and shouldn't be far off from classes she may be able to take from Sophia or Study.com in order to reduce the classes she would have to take at East Texas A&M. I have already warned her about the Texas Government class. 

Is anyone aware of a thread or a source that might discuss this BAAS in Health Services so we can look at what sort of game plan might be possible?

She went ahead and requested more information on this with the school yesterday and already requested her transcripts be sent for evaluation, so we may just have to wait for that and go from there, just trying to see if we can get a jump start on it.

Hello, 
So I need to know if there is any degree plan on CSU's IT or Cybersecurity programs. 
Also, do they accept ACE credits ? I know they accept sophia and I have all gen eds done (except two)
I also have a lot of coursera google courses which have ACE credits which is why I need to know if they accept them or not.
What about credits from Nationally accredited universities ? are they accepted ? 
Thanks.

Given I had signed up for this university taking advantage of the discounted 15 USD sign up, I had already recently completed 10 OD courses and it doesn't hurt to send the transcript now that University of the People now accepts NCCRS credit.
Once you finish all of the onlinedegree courses you want, you just fill out the form (I used the free option and felt it was very streamlined and easy to use). You write the university address and the final 4 digits of the Social Security number for ID purposes and click send. An automated email arrives to your mailbox immediately they will process the transcript within 2 weeks. I glt an email precisely on the 14th day requesting the transcript request be made again and send a reply to the automated email with a scan of a valid ID.
Their response was very quick and I got this email today stating the transcript will arrive to the university in 1-2 weeks. I am very curious to know what their transfer equivalent will be. Most likely most of them will come in as electives.

Ill be starting at TAMUC for organizational leadership this spring and am trying to knock out a few more classes on Sophia.

Hello,

I am graduating from Pierpont in December with an AAS BOG degree. The degree will have an aoe of Information Systems, but I don't see anywhere in my records that indicates that the aoe is actually applied to my degree. Where would I see this?

Thanks, Duane.

I'm trying to decide on which doctorate to get where, or even to get a doctorate at all.

Current location: Washington state, USA.

Citizenship: Sweden, USA and (soon to be) Italy.

Age: Almost 33.

Budget: As cheap as possible.

Needs: A degree that is recognized in Europe, the US and Japan. I don't care about prestige. I prefer self-paced when possible but it's not a requirement. If not in my timezone then it needs to have recorded lectures or something, I can't pass classes when sessions are at 2am my time.

Commitments: I have no spouse, no kids, no pets, no house, no debts, nothing really.

Time to study: Unsure where I'll be at during the point when I can start a PhD.

Motivation: I'm visually impaired and depending on where I live also an immigrant using second language skills, thus potential employers don't see me as very valuable. Due to this struggle I was unemployed for all of my 20's and I regularly continue to have employment issues in my 30's as I only seem to get the bottom of the barrel jobs (and I'm not talking only about salary). I want better credentials to help secure decent employment.

Location: Online is my normal, but in person is ok if I can afford moving/living there. If I have to move to a physical campus, note that I can't get a driver's license so there needs to be good public transport. Also as I'm close to blind I make a good target, it needs to be a location with low crime. I prefer the countryside to the city.

Interests: My dream job would be to get handed a minority language with sentence translations and told to analyze it to write a grammar book and create a dictionary. Or to help create worksheets, books and so on in minority languages. Or to do something like design a regularized constructed language to be used as intercommunication. I enjoy teaching and translating languages however the range of that is limited as most people want native speakers and AI is quickly taking over that career field. 

I love Japanese but degrees in Japanese are worthless nowadays and don't lead to any career. You have a few prospects as a native speaker but not as a non-native.

I would be interested in doing something like creating products for disabled people (stuff I wish I had) or learning programming in order to code stuff for disabled people (stuff like Chrome browser extensions, edits to Windows or modifications to Steam videogames) but I feel that's probably not within the scope of a PhD.

I'm also interested in starting my own business, I have a few ideas, one being running a hostel that incorporates language stuff. But I feel that is also not within the scope of a PhD.

I also have the hobby of genealogy. Similar to language analysis this is another "research tons of stuff and analyze it to see what fits" sort of hobby.

Languages I can read at C1 level: English (native), Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, Faroese, Japanese, Esperanto.

Languages I could probably learn pretty fast (within 1-3 years) to C1 level, to meet college entry requirements: Yiddish, German, Dutch, Italian, Korean, Turkish.

Work Experience: Language teaching, hotel work, article writing, ebook creation, AI output editing/reviewing.

Finished Education:
Certificate - 120 hour TEFL
Certificate - C1 (JLPT N1) in Japanese
Benchmark - SAS 3 (C1 level) Swedish courses completed
State Exams - Praxis Core (West-B), NES 102 & 103 passed
Trade school - Hospitality
Trade school - Bartending
Associate's - Integrated Studies
Bachelor's - Japanese Language
ENEB Bachelor's / Master's - MBA, Project Management, Hotel & Tourism

Education in Progress:
WGU Master's - Elementary Education for US licensure

Timeline: Will graduate from WGU by summer 2025. Due to legal requirements regarding my WGU scholarship I will probably have to stick around for 6 to 12 months before I can physically move elsewhere. After that I should probably jump into a PhD right away since I won't be getting any younger.

Tuition assistance/reimbursement: My workplace doesn't do that.

Hello, I am new here, and I have learned that there is a limit of 90 credits for alternative credits.
Regarding BACS, is it possible to earn this many credits from alternative credit sources such as Study.com or Sophia?
Currently, I have more than 40 credits, but at WGU, we could get these 61 from such sources. Is it possible to earn more credits from these types of sources with TSEU?
Thank you!

FT working busy Mom who has alot of transfer credits and just wants to finish my Bachelors so I can qualify for a leadership role at work. Any Bachelors will do! Just want the easiest one that takes the most credits. Anyone know?
