When I check my degree evaluations, the degrees list this, e.g. for a BA in English:
E: AOS Electives 12 SH
Then it shows "Group 1" and "Group 2". What is the meaning of the groups? I can't find anywhere saying what kind of classes fall under "Group 1" and which fall under "Group 2".

Group 1 is UL courses. Group 2 is LL courses but UL courses can be included in Group 2 if you have extra. Courses can be LIT or ENG in either group.

Thanks much for the help! Do they never allow courses that are obviously English-related to fullfill the requirements, if they lack the LIT or ENG prefixes? For instance, I have a "History of English Language" course with an ANTH prefix and another in "English Linguistics".

I've been asking myself the same question. Does anyone know the answer to Pelican's question?

It would be worth asking. In general, if there is an actual TESU course that fits in an area, it would be listed, but that's far from ironclad. In the end, these situations require that someone try to get the particular course accepted into their academic eval and report back here.

Coursera: Stanford Machine Learning (2019)

You have to just ask TESU. I am taking Employment Law as part of my BSBA General Management area of study. They put it in as an 'allowed exception'. I think you have to be an enrolled student for them to reply to you about this thought. Because they immediately want to go in and lock it into your degree plan with them. If you aren't enrolled they won't have a degree plan in there for you. When I first joined here, the common advice was to not enroll until you had all your credits. But I would say that the advice I have gotten from TESU has been invaluable in knowing exactly what to take, and what fits where. Well worth the application fee.
