TESU BA Mathematics Area of Study Courses

There's too many to select from, but at a cost perspective, I think I'll go for the cheapest ones first, instead of easy/fast.

Here's the 2, I have decided to take online and taking 3 at the local university (if I can't find cheaper options)
1) Coppersmith - Concepts in Math and Quantitative Analysis
2) Westcott - Abstract Algebra, It's their only UL option https://www.brandman.edu/westcott

OP - There's one thing to note, you haven't taken anything from Study.com yet, you need to take at least two courses to get your money's worth otherwise you lose out on the discounts on the Capstone/Residency Waiver.  Now, my question to you is, are you taking courses at TESU?  If so, how many?

I'm trying to figure out exactly which courses I'm taking where, so I don't know for sure yet. But I think the TESU Calculus 3 is the only Calc 3 considered UL so I think I'm taking that.

Also, what do you mean by "Capstone/Residency Waiver"? I'm not familiar with that.

If you transfer in at least 1 SDC course to TESU you can get an affiliate discount on tuition and, if you need it, a residency waiver. The price of courses becomes $366/ credit instead of ~$500/credit normally. Definitely makes a big difference if you plan to take a few TESU courses. Also of note is that you can get discreet mathematics at SDC.

Most people here only take the capstone at TESU but the discount applies to tuition for all of their normal, full length courses.
The residency waiver is a fee that tesu charges if you graduate from tesu with less than 16 TESU credits(I may be wrong on that number). Also, if you plan to take a lot of courses at tesu(18+ credits) the comprehensive 1 year of tuition becomes significantly cheaper at something around $6k instead of $9k.

Yup, that's exactly right. So, it depends on how many courses you are going to take with TESU. The more courses you are taking with them, I would suggest you do the Comprehensive Tuition. The lesser the courses, then do the Study.com affiliate discount pricing. That's why I was asking... I would only recommend the Comprehensive Tuition for someone going for a double major OR another degree, as you can use 36 credits total to get the "hard to find" UL courses.

I wonder, if you fail a Westcott course, will it show on record at the university? I assume not. Also, if you pass but get a poor grade, can you elect for Westcott to not inform the university and keep it off the record that way?

SDC affiliate pricing gets you a big discount on Comprehensive Tuition, too. The breakeven point is MUCH less than 36 credits (or even the 24 credits the TESU website talks about), more like 16.

For those of you pursuing Math degrees, has there been any word on expanding it to include a Statistics concentration, or even a standalone degree, given their relationship with statistics.com? Otherwise, is there any suggestion on who to reach out to at the Heavin School of Arts and Sciences?

I am interested in this also.  I spoke to someone on the general help line at TESU and they offered no insight and just reiterated that they do not have a statistics concentration.  If anyone else has better contacts there, then please let us know.  Thanks.

May I ask you a questions? Are you planjing on getting masters or phd in math? My 11 yr old wants to be a university math professor and get a phd in theoretical mathematics and I am trying to figure out if a math degee from TESU will work for his undergrad. He could in all likelihood, acquire it by 18/19 if this path would work.

Just a BA in Math or Statistics.
