Interesting, back in December 2020 TESU replied to my email and informed ""Public Speaking through Sophia learning is no longer accepted for credit."

There are reasons why we don't recommend people contact an advisor unless it is absolutely necessary.

Does anyone know if "Smarter Decisions Through Psychology" is accepted, and if so, what it comes in as? I didn't see it on the wiki or above.

Who knows... Sometimes TESU advising may have conflicting information, I usually look at the ACE recommendation for credit to verify it's still valid. The courses sometimes have to go through a renewal or extended date. TESU may have had a course or two showing not updated yet...

Nobody has reported taking it yet. That doesn't mean that it's accepted. Or that it's not accepted. But we won't know what it comes in as until someone reports back.

Do you know what general education requirement Approaches to Studying Religion filled? Does it fulfill Diversity or is it just a Humanities course? Thanks.

It was in the C: KNOWLDG HUMAN CULTRS slot. Sociology filled the Diversity slot.

I've heard it does not fulfill that particular requirement any longer - when they downgraded it to REL-100 from REL-277, they no longer allowed it there.  But I could be wrong.

It's hard to know sometimes without asking TESU directly, because someone (like Murdockb) may have a course that already fills that spot, so they won't be able to tell you if it would have worked.
