Is SOS-1100 exempted because of my foreign bachelor's degree?

[Garyjoston]

Guys, this is deciding whether I can continue with this BBA program this year.


I have my first bachelor's and master's degrees, and I've already transferred most of my courses through them. I'm currently studying the remaining professional courses and preparing to transfer. I was planning to pay for expedited courses, but I found out I also have to take SOS-1100 and Capstone. However, it seems my SOS-1100 is exempt. I don't know if this is true? If so, I only need to pay the Capstone credit fee, totaling $1800.

If not, I feel I need to pause this program because I can't currently afford this huge expense, and it doesn't seem worth it.

Could you check what "Waived" is shown on my program plan?

See the attachment showed:

Information Literacy (INSTITUTIONAL REQUIREMENT) 3SH To meet this requirement, students MUST take SOS-1100 Fact, Fiction, or Fake? Information Literacy Today (formerly Critical Information Literacy) at Thomas Edison State University. Waived.

Good news! The interpretation most favorable to you is correct. The Information Literacy requirement and therefore SOS-1100 are waived for you because you already have a bachelor’s degree.

Basically, in short, that's what the "Waived" means... Having said that, your degree will not cost you $1,800 in total, there is an error in your calculation as it is missing the application, graduation, and your choice of Edison Accelerate fee or flat rate of 15 credits...
