  Sophia Human Biology lab
Posted by: tdat314 - 04-22-2024, 03:25 PM - Forum: Saylor.org, Straighterline, Study.com, OnlineDegree.com, Sophia.Org Discussion - Replies (1)

The format for the Lab portion of Human Biology has me bored out of my mind. I don't think I was expecting anything better, but as the first course I'm attempting with touchstones, I can't wait to be finished with it.

Currently holding to see if I completed the lab report touchstone correctly before even starting the other one.

I know that this is a better option than taking something at a school directly, but jeez.

  New link to Student Services?
Posted by: KsT - 04-22-2024, 01:55 PM - Forum: TESU - Thomas Edison State University Discussion - Replies (1)

Anyone got the new TESU link to Student Services / My Progress? Been a while since I logged in and from the main TESU website it won't work for me, I remember there was a direct link I went to last time.

Edit: Nevermind, I had to disable my adblocker and it works now

  UMPI BAS or PUG BSPr or other way to doctoral degree
Posted by: mdn - 04-22-2024, 12:43 PM - Forum: Degree Planning Advice - Replies (2)

Hi,

Your Location: Finland
Your Age: 40+
What kind of degree do you want?: Bachelor or Master - Doctoral (nothing yet).
Current Regional Accredited Credits: 1 (ASU) - should be availble in a week.

Current ACE, CLEP, or NCCRS Credits:

Sophia Credits: 60
Briefly enough for Pierpont BOG AAS. Without touchstones.
Additionally to 60 - Foundations of English Composition, 2

In plans (for PUG):
English Composition I
Public Speaking

Other credits - Finnish University: 49 ECTS
IT/Programming - 28 ECTS
Mathematics - 20 ECTS

Any certifications or military experience?
CISSP, CCSP, (CISSP-)ISSAP.

Budget: Cheap and fast. By current estimation - 3k-4k per year should be more less ok.
Commitments: I work more less full-time (briefly Software Engineer). Family, kids.
Dedicated time to study: On average 20 hours per week. About 2 months per year - much more.
Timeline: ...
Tuition assistance/reimbursement: No.

I went to college at 3rd country for 5 years and got my diploma long time ago, but recently I has figured out that it will be almost impossible to validate it (due to multiple reasons).
I also have no High School Diploma as seems I left it in that University. It should be possible to restore it but it will take really a lot of time.

Briefly I need some diploma which should be ok for different immigration purposes for different countries, like for example UAE. So at least Bachelor.

Later, as a long term plane, already just for me (as I always wanted to be like my parents) - it would be nice to get a doctoral degree.

What I have considered (mostly due to this forum):

1. Pierpont BOG AAS
   As it will be some basic degree - it would be nice to get it, I plan to finish my application as soon as my 1 ASU credit will be ready for transfer.
   I am not sure, do I need AoE or not.

2. Finland, Metropolia "Degree Programme of Information Technology, online studies 180 ECTS" + next Bachelor
   I can do it fast enough, but I think the real Bachelor degree will take an additional year, and at the best case it will be 2025/26 year.

3. ENEB, MBA & Master
   I am enrolled as it was quite cheap, but I am not sure how such Master will work for me. But briefly I plan to have those Masters in 2025.

4. UMPI BAS
   I am not sure. If I will get BOG AAS at September 2024 at latest. General Education Curriculum Requirements - by this forum I can fulfill them by Sophia.

5. PUG BSPr (Bachelor of Science in Professional Studies)
   By my certificates - I already have 73 credits, + Sophia's credits - it should be fine. As I understand, "Foundations of English Composition" should be enough to confirm English Proficiency.

   I think BSPr is better than BAS, but I am not sure.

But what's next, what might be my other options? Might be I have to do something totally different, please advice.

Any feedback is highly appreciated.

Thank you.

Dear Forum Members,
I hope this message finds you well. I am currently in the process of completing my remaining classes at UMPI in BLS Management and Political Science, and I'm seeking advice on equivalent courses that I can take to fulfill these requirements.
For the upcoming summer session 1, I have the following UMPI classes remaining:

  1. PHI152 - Introduction to Ethics

  2. PSYCHOLOGY

  3. ART108 - Graphic Design

  4. ENG151 - Intro to Literature or HUM1

  5. BIO105 - Biology for Everyday Life or HPR101 - Lifelong Wellness

  6. ENV110 - Intro to Environmental Science

  7. GEO101 - Human Geography or SOC100 - Intro to Sociology

  8. HTY116 - World Civilization II

  9. BUS260 - Leadership

  10. Operations Management

  11. PCJ215 - Business Communication
I'm eager to complete these courses during this session and have already accumulated over 30 credits at UMPI. Could you please advise me on which classes I can take that would be considered equivalent to the ones listed above?
Your guidance and suggestions would be greatly appreciated as I navigate through this process.
Thank you for your time and assistance.

  Master degrees
Posted by: hicham78h - 04-22-2024, 02:03 AM - Forum: Graduate School Discussion - Replies (1)

Dear Forum Members,

I hope this message finds you well. I am currently exploring options for pursuing a Master's degree and would greatly appreciate any insights or experiences you can share regarding the programs at Oklahoma State University, Southern New Hampshire University (SNHU), and Emporia State University and Gies college iMSM program.

Specifically, I'm curious about the format of classes – are they predominantly paper-based assignments or quizzes? Additionally, how challenging are the courses? I'm keen to understand the learning process and how interactive it is, especially in an online setting.
Furthermore, I'm interested in any scholarship opportunities these universities may offer. Financial assistance would greatly aid my pursuit of higher education.

As a side note, I have some remaining classes at UMPI in BLS Management and Political Science, and I'm looking to seamlessly transition into a Master's program. If you have any alternative suggestions or recommendations for programs that align with my interests, I would be grateful to hear them. i am interested in digital marketing or marketing since I have my own online business and have 4 professional certificates in e-commerce and dig marketing .

Thank you in advance for your time and assistance.

  Is there any way to enrol into the WGU MBA program as an international student?
Posted by: FM1 - 04-22-2024, 12:14 AM - Forum: Graduate School Discussion - Replies (6)

I need to get an MBA as a chech box qualification so not concerned with getting an MBA with a top tier school but do want an accredited MBA thats reasonably cheap that I can knock out in 6 - 12 months. WGU meets all those requirements so trying to enrol into their MBA program but they don't accept international students. I'm trying to work out if there is some sort of workaround I can use to enrol.

Hmm, sounds like a Terminator movie is coming out sooner than I thought... Oh wait, this is AI... not robotics, err... Anyways, this AI technology advancement seems interesting, probably a good thing if some country wants to use it for protection against an invasion of another (ahem, Russia, ahem)...

  Retaking ETS proficiency
Posted by: varp58 - 04-21-2024, 02:53 AM - Forum: TESU - Thomas Edison State University Discussion - Replies (2)

I messed up and waited until last minute to schedule E-Proficiency Profile. Moodle says it is due by end of day 4/21/24. There is one option to take exam at 11:40 pm AKST (Alaska, where I live) later today (04/21/24), but Moodle runs on EST (East Coast).

This is the second time I am taking my Capstone course, and so I have my proficiency profile from a year ago. Does any one know if I can submit last years score? Any other suggestions?

  Inappropriate Behavior from Moderator
Posted by: sanantone - 04-20-2024, 10:28 PM - Forum: Off Topic - Replies (17)

Is it appropriate for a moderator to post politically divisive baiting and trolling content every day? When someone calls him out on it, is it okay for him to delete complaints so no one will see them? Maybe I should directly message the administrators of this forum.

  Resign before getting fired...
Posted by: bjcheung77 - 04-20-2024, 07:50 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (4)

Just curious, what are the benefits of resigning before getting fired? Do they get a chance to get re-hired at a different school or something outside the city or county, even state? I would hate to see such a teacher evade charges or get re-hired elsewhere just because he knows loopholes in the educational system...

My daughter 12 goes to grade 6, she's fine, not bullied or anything, she's pretty good with everyone including teachers, but my son (10.5 years of age) in grade 5 is different, he needs extra help most of the time with a support teacher, he also gets bullied... I know how parents will feel when something like this happens, just sad...
