TESU BA psychology

[jsd]

I am pretty surprised. I wonder if it would be worth an appeal.

They have ruled out any possibility of including I/O Psychology. This makes things difficult for me. I now need two more upper level credits either through Uexcel, TECEP or study.com. Please suggest options.

TECEP Abnormal Psychology is UL but a little expensive. I think UExcel Abnormal Psychology is UL as well. Ditto for UExcel Social Psychology. Is Coopersmith an option for you? Their Physiological Psychology is UL if I'm not mistaken.

JSD has a fairly exhaustive list on the wiki:

I thought Uexcel social psychology was an option. They are saying that it duplicates with study.com’s LL course. I am surprised. I thought I might check with you all and get back to them. They have suggested I complete study.com’s advanced social psychology to meet their 6 credit requirement.

Supermind, I didn't look and you haven't specified in your last post which 2 UL courses are required? Have you checked the three providers you mentioned, TECEP/UEXCEL/Study.com - What are the names of the two courses that are missing in your AOS?

Compared to taking a TESU course at the cost of $1098, a TECEP, UEXCEL, or a Coopersmith course would be much better on the wallet. Don't be too picky on your provider of choice, just do the course that is required.

Note: If they're not allowing you to substitute the course or move the course (so be it), move onto the next set of required courses and get those empty slots filled. Take the required missing course from either of the three providers above - TECEP/UEXCEL/Coopersmith or Study.com

Me too. What is the appeal process? In my case, I have only been consulting them over email, as I live outside the US.

The only incomplete courses for me right now are:

Research methods in psychology
Physiological psychology
Abnormal psychology
Social psychology (additional 3 credits. I have already completed social psychology-1 on SDC).

TESU advising told you that? How can an UL class duplicate a LL class? Or are they not bringing it in as UL despite it's designation at Excelsior?

I am moving on to complete other courses, and fill other slots. Just that I was feeling so happy that I have only one more upper level course left. Now I have two.

Exactly. That is my question. Are they bringing it as LL despite its UL designation at Excelsior? This is what they wrote:

‘The UExcel test will not fulfill that requirement and it will duplicate with the study.com course Social Psychology. I would highly suggest you not take the Uexcel exam for that requirement, complete the study.com course.‘

How is Ed4credit’s physiological psychology? Is it upper level?

It doesn't duplicate, since it's UL vs. LL.  What taking the Study.com courses does is meets a specific requirement - but it doesn't get you the UL courses required.  Those are 2 separate requirements.

[Supermind]

Yes dfrecore. I get the difference between the two. I have completed SDC’s social psychology-1. Instead of their Adv. Social psychology, I was planning on taking Uexcel to meet the other 3 credit requirement, and also meet one UL course requirement. Now, I have this situation.

[Supermind]

I just read Nodaclu’s posts on a different thread. He had to complete two UL psychology credits. And he has completed Uexcel advanced social psychology. He also plans to complete research methods Uexcel. This was suggested to him by TESU only. I wonder how they are now saying it won’t satisfy the requirements.
