Does anyone know if StraighterLine's "Introduction to Communications" course is accepted at Charter Oak? I'm looking for an equivalent course to fulfill COSC's "Oral Communication" Gen Ed requirement. I looks like someone mentioned on another thread BYU (not sure what that stands for) has a Public Speaking course that is also accepted. But I'm specifically wondering about Straighterline's course. I appreciate any help you can give.
Thanks!

I believe they accept it...just doesn't satisfy the public speaking requirement.

I'm always happy to complete the free application waiver for those applying to WGU (I get a free gift from WGU for this).  Just PM me your first/last name and a valid email so I can complete their form.

According to straighterline's COSC transfer guide, they do not accept it.

Is Charter Oak accepting it now? I know this is an old thread so I am hoping things have changed

EDIT: Just Googled it and it looks like they are accepting it now (http://www.straighterline.com/colleges/c...uivalency/)
