HELP! - I need Upper Level Liberal Arts Credit in 3 weeks!

[Qwerty56]

I made the big mistake of not looking at my COSC degree plan. I binged on a bunch of tests and missed an Upper-Level requirement. Any advice? In order to graduate in August, I have to finish by July 31.

without knowing what you've already taken, it's hard to suggest something that won't be duplicated by a course you've already completed.

Here's the latest COSC CBE list:

And Study.com has a few COSC UL liberal arts (mostly psychology) courses, but they are more expensive than an exam for one course:
Charter Oak State College

Straighterline doesn't offer any UL options for COSC.

+1, exactly what I was going to type... Furthermore, Liberal Arts has so many options. You can find something you would like to learn about and get credit for it. Sometimes the easy courses for one person, would be a harder course for another if it doesn't interest them.

I would suggest Substance Abuse DSST if you have not taken it already. Since you are cutting it so close, be sure to pre-approve whatever you take with your adviser or the registrar. Do you only need one course (3 credits)?

I only need one course. I've taken the SOC302 with TCC, English CLEP, SL Intro to Nutrition and a bunch of FEMA courses. I too the Army Safety courses and DTRA radiologic I exam.

I'll hit up the advisor for the DSST Substance Abuse. I see there were a couple people that passed it recently using InstaCert.

You should factor in that after you take them, it usually takes about a week for the results of DSST exams to show up at COSC. Congrats on making it this far! Good luck!

Any of the DSST UL are way doable in 3 weeks. But as mentioned, it took 10 (ten) days for Excelsior to receive DSST results. Your mileage may vary at your school.

And you're sure you can graduate in August? Lucky you. I'll be finished with my final course at Excelsior AUGUST 21, but conferral isn't until NOVEMBER 18 (meaning that's when they'll mail out my degree) - and they confer EVERY month. Bleh.

I've passed History of Soviet Union, Civil War and Reconstruction, and Business Ethics and Society. I would say out of those 3, Business Ethics and Society. Excelsior didn't dupe it against Ethics in America. There's good information for Business Ethics.

Good luck.

If you want to do something other than DSST, study.com has Advanced Technical Writing that is UL per ACE.

The following all have UL credits, but just not sure how long any of them would take to send the info to COSC:
TorCollegeCredits
UExcel
TECEP
CSU-Global CBE
Penn Foster may have some (they have some business ones for sure)

Good luck!

Not to derail too greatly, but are you saying these things somehow got accepted as credit? My current roadmap has me completing through COSC, but I thought a lot of my training similar to that was worthless...
