  Do you have to follow the TESU class dates?
Posted by: pluggingalong - 7 hours ago - Forum: TESU - Thomas Edison State University Discussion - Replies (3)

I logged in to my first TESU class, and the first week is halfway done. I'm supposed to make and post a video this week. Is there in a penalty for being late on an assignment? I am use to WGU, where you basically do things whenever you want. Now, I am already behind schedule. They have an entire 12 week schedule of when things need to be done. Can I go faster, or slower?

  UMPI MA in American Studies
Posted by: Jonathan Whatley - 7 hours ago - Forum: UMPI - University of Maine at Presque Isle Discussion - Replies (1)

The University of Maine System Academic and Student Affairs Committee voted at its August 25 meeting to recommend that the UMS Board of Trustees approve a new Master of Arts in American Studies from the University of Maine at Presque Isle, to be delivered through the YourPace CBE modality.

From the proposal,

Quote:The UMPI YourPace M.A. in American Studies is a 30-credit hour, interdisciplinary, non-thesis program. This M.A. in American Studies degree is an interdisciplinary graduate program that focuses on the study of American culture, history, society, politics, and economics. This program explores the complexities of American identity, values, and institutions by drawing on a wide range of subjects such as literature, history, sociology, anthropology, political science, and art.

Proposed courses at launch, each coded AST, are
  • Discovering and Interpreting Local History
  • Oral History
  • Gender and Sex in America
  • Social Media and American Culture
  • Makers of America
  • Cold War America
  • The American South
  • Violent America
  • Silent Stories: American Cemeteries as Material Culture and Reflections of Death, Memory, and Identity
  • Echoes of Valor: Exploring Union Civil War Soldiers Experiences Through Pension Records
Fuller description of the degree and each course is provided in the proposal, linked here.

The committee discussion indicated UMPI is interested in the future in potentially adding concentrations in collaboration with other UMS faculty, and in potentially adding a thesis option. UMPI believes a student in the non-thesis program will develop a strong portfolio of written work.

  Getting Art Degree from TESU: My Experience
Posted by: CreativeLearner - 8 hours ago - Forum: TESU - Thomas Edison State University Discussion - No Replies

I just completed my BA in Art from TESU and will graduate this month. When I first started this journey, it was mentioned here that the Art degree at TESU is not well researched because few attempt it. I thought I would post my experience here to help add to existing information. My background: I started an art and graphic design based degree many years ago. When I applied to TESU, they took nearly all my old credits, even the older computer design classes. By comparison, my local community college practically laughed me out the door when I showed them my old Adobe classes. I was fortunate in that I did not have many studio classes left to complete. Studio classes are classes like painting, sculpture, etc and are very difficult to find online options for. TESU does not offer these classes and you have to bring them in from somewhere else. In my case, I was able to take my studio classes at my local community college, and TESU readily transferred them in. I also noticed they gave me upper level credit for some of my community college art classes which was helpful. If there is other information that would be helpful, please feel free to ask and I will do my best to answer!

  Judaic Studies Concentration at Charter Oak State College
Posted by: Endercreeper01 - 8 hours ago - Forum: COSC - Charter Oak State College Discussion - No Replies

I would like to get started with the Judaic Studies Program. However, I'm not sure where I could find the courses for such a program, or where I would begin.
Is there any way that I can find the courses elsewhere to take the Judaic Studies courses required?

  US Citizenship Should Not Be Required for Entry into the University
Posted by: Endercreeper01 - 8 hours ago - Forum: General "Big 3", B&M colleges, and other colleges - Replies (2)

I am aware of Universities such as Western Governors University that require you to be a US Citizen in order to apply to their University. I don't agree with this policy. I would like for Western Governors University to open their University to International Students. 
I am also interested in finding a program here which does accept international students and doesn't require you to be a US Citizen, in order to be a part of the University. I haven't checked out the other institutions yet, besides Western Governors. However: This is certainly an important issue before I proceed.

  TES-1110-TECEP AI Unlocked: Tools, Prompts, and Possibilities
Posted by: fmsoa - Today, 12:19 AM - Forum: CLEP, DSST, and TECEP Exam Discussion. Also Modern States and InstantCert. - Replies (1)

Very easy 100%

60 MC Questions.
20: Basic ML/DL Concetps
20: Gen AI and Prompt Engineering
20: Ethics and Cybersecurity
Again, very basic, spent no time studying. Worked on the 30 sample questions got 29 correct.

Originally not planned to really take the test. Buy since it is free from the scholarship offer, decided to take it and still got Medical Terminology and Science of Caffeine as placeholders just in case

  What is the best first CLEP exam to take in 2025 for someone new to credit-by-exam?
Posted by: Arielbr - Yesterday, 09:52 PM - Forum: CLEP, DSST, and TECEP Exam Discussion. Also Modern States and InstantCert. - No Replies

I’m completely new to CLEP and other credit-by-exam programs (DSST, TECEP, etc.), and I’m a bit overwhelmed by the choices. For someone starting from scratch this year, what’s considered the “easiest” or most straightforward CLEP exam to begin with?

Also, is it better to pair Modern States with InstantCert right away, or should I stick to one platform for my very first exam?

  Lamar University: One Free Graduate Level Course
Posted by: SpartacusPM - Yesterday, 06:34 PM - Forum: Graduate School Discussion - Replies (3)

Lamar University is offering free graduate and undergraduate level courses for non-degree seeking students. It is stated for the Fall 2025 term, about half of the courses have already started, with the other half starting in October. I applied and it took 2 weeks to hear that they accepted me.

It is first come first serve, but it also mentions a waiting list, so possible they extend this into Spring 2026

Here are the courses listed:

Graduate level:

  • Information Assurance and Security
  • Human Resources Management
  • Personal Leadership

  • Foundations of Professional Counseling
