SOS-110 is what people here usually recommend whenever this question is asked, and from my experience it was easy even though there was a lot of writing involved (7 writing assignments). You can check out the syllabus here and decide for yourself

Pretty much pick any one credit course that sounds easy/interesting to you. PLA100 is pretty easy, would think the new Cornerstone would be, too.

PLA-100 would be $499 (assuming out-of-state tuition), while the Cornerstone would be $300. No idea what the Cornerstone will consist of though - they don't have it completed yet.

+1 for the Cornerstone as its $300 compared to a 1 credit course, otherwise you can pick any that is one credit for GPA.

TESU requires an undergrad to meet the 2.0 or higher GPA before graduating.
All transferred classes into the program won't have a GPA at the institution.
We're essentially forced into taking a course for meeting that 2.0 requirement.

Do you have any more info on this Cornerstone course? The TESU website barley mentions it as a new requirement. Would like to find a syllabus as I've signed up for the 1 credit Jane Austen course only because I need a GPA on my transcript. Started reading the book and it's not exactly my cup of tea, so this Cornerstone sounds like a great alternative.

As far as we've been told, they're still building the cornerstone course, hence no syllabus. Presumably it's going to an pretty remedial course about how to learn online, but nobody knows anything for certain just yet
