Dear all,

I’m new to the forum and excited to be part of this community! ? I’m not a U.S. citizen, so the education system here (credits, General Education requirements, etc.) is a bit unfamiliar to me. I’ve been reading through many threads, which have been incredibly helpful, and I’ve decided to pursue my BA at UMPI.

After doing some research, I’ve developed a plan to gain my credits, but I’d love for you to take a look and let me know if it makes sense. Do I need to make any adjustments? Are there any pitfalls I should avoid? I am attaching my plan to the post.

Your feedback and advice would mean a lot to me! Thank you in advance for taking the time to help me.

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts.

Best regards,

Chris

Hello,

As per the title I want to understand what happens when there is an overlap for General Electives and General Education Requirements

For example, if I have Intro to Nutrition and Art History 2 in my General Education Requirements, can I also use these in my General Electives, or must I have unique general electives?

For documents and other file types such as PDF's, is there an application that can merge specific pages of a PDF with another? For example, I have X PDF's, I want to selectively grab pages from those Docx/PDF's and combine them into one... Is there an application for that? Something like a cut/paste or snipping parts that I want to review later?  

This is for generating a Coles or Collins Notes version of a set of textbook chapters for review, so I can review parts I need to retain info in those hard to grasp concept areas or points I want to.  It's easier than copy/pasting into a document, or getting screenshots, etc, much faster than writing down or highlighting those notes as well.   Anything out there?

It has been quite a while since I went to school. In 2005, I attended college and took whatever I wanted without any guidance. I took a ridiculous amount of Child Dev classes at my local college. 

Now, here I am, returning to school and decided on the BSBA program at TESU. I am currently working through some of my Sophia General Ed requirements. My question is... what can I do with all of those ChildDev credits I received? Could they possibly count towards my electives? I am a little confused to how it all works. I plan on applying to TESU in May and will see where I stand then, but just hoping someone can give me some insight. 


Thanks for the help!!

Mexico has a prestigious Technological Public University known as the Instituto Politecnico Nacional or IPN for short. While the UNAM offers all sorts of degrees, the IPN tends to offer mostly STEM degrees. I was pondering sharing a post about this university in the past because the costs are insanely cheap (20 USD a semester), but I couldn’t find the updated online school website.

The online school offers several Bachelors and a few Master degrees. Sign ups open February 4th and apparently there is a knowledge assesment exam that is supposed to be done in person. Looks like if travel to Mexico City is too difficult, they might be willing to let the applicant take the entrance exam online.


Bachelors

Business Administration and Development
Archieving Degree (Seems like a librarian adjacent degree)
Librarian degree
International Commerce
Accounting
Accounting and Finance
International Business
Commercial Relationships
Tourism

Masters

Education degree (Physics)
Education degree (Math)
Marketing

PhD

Education degree (Physics)
Education degree (Math)

They seem to also have an offering of Associates degrees in Business, Commerce, Accounting, Computer Science, Software Development, Environmental Urban Improvement, Graphics Design, Marketing, Nutrition, IT, Lab Chemist and Welding (not sure how these 2 degrees could be done fully online).

Hey guys, I have what I hope is a quick question. I am pursuing a BA in computer science and currently have 78 credits applied, 60 from community college + 18 ACE. Since I have never attended a 4 year school, the max number of credits I can transfer is 90.  The computer science degree says it is 120 credits, but is actually 121 since every class in the degree is 3 credits except calculus 1 which is 4 credits. Looking on My Progress, however, reveals that I really only need 3 credits of calculus. I completed calculus 1 on sophia which says it is worth 4 ACE credits. 

The question I have is, when they transfer it over, will it count as 3 credits of transfer, or 4? The reason I ask is because if it is 4 credits, I will be at 82 credits transferred in and could only bring 2 additional ACE courses, bringing me to 88 credits, but if they only apply 3 of the 4 credits as transfer, I will have 81 and can bring 3 additional courses. I emailed advising last week to ask if an exception could be made which would allow me to transfer 91 credits, since the degree need 121 and I'd still be taking 30 with TESU, and they told me that no exceptions would ever be made regarding maximum transfer credit.

And how long might it take to finish one?

I'm only interested in ones that transfer to and apply to the University of Maryland Global Campus (UMGC) bachelor's degree psychology major. It seems like it would be these courses at study.com:

• Psychology 104: Social Psychology
  
• Psychology 105: Research Methods in Psychology
  
• Psychology 311: Physiological Psychology
  
• Psychology 302: Cognitive Psychology
  
• Psychology 306: Advanced Abnormal Psychology
