Lib Arts Health + Wellness Concentration

[k-k-k-katy]

I have really wondered why TESU doesn't "open up" that particular degree because I think a lot more people would go in that direction if it had the alternative credit options like the BSBA, or the other Lib Arts concentrations.  

TESU didn't "open up" any degrees - alternative credit providers started creating courses that would work in the BSBA for instance, because it's a VERY popular degree.  So many people do business degrees that there is a ton of demand for those courses, and companies are more willing to spend the time and money needed to create a course when they know it's a popular one.

I doubt that nearly as many people want a Health & Wellness degree (if they did, many more schools would offer them).

Okay, I see.  Yes, I agree and take your point that business degree alternative credit courses would be much more valuable to those companies than any other.  I was looking at it from the wrong perspective, I should look at it through the lens of the alternative providers (makes perfect sense) rather than TESU.  I literally looked at dozens (and dozens) of brick and mortar schools over the weekend and most of the ones I looked at offer a Health and Wellness degree in some way or another (either through liberal arts, health science, even psych) so I took that to mean it was at least a somewhat popular degree.  Perhaps in the future the alternative providers, who are already offering some classes in Health and Wellness, might more closely align their courses to meet TESU criteria, that would be nice, :-).

I wasn't saying that no schools offered them, just that it was not as popular as a business degree.

It would be nice if EVERY degree offered by the Big 3 was easy to get alternatively, but alas, it is not to be.

or at least not in time for my degree plan, ha - but hopefully, in the future, on-line, alternative will open up more and more.  Here's an off-topic question, though:  I'm not sure where the Sophia Introduction to Information Technology fits in a lib arts degree plan - is it a General Education Elective?
