Are there any courses on Sophia that transfer to UMPI YourPace at the 300/400 level? What about study.com or other places?

  Which MBA program
Posted by: faptaincrunch - 09-29-2024, 09:06 AM - Forum: Graduate School Discussion - Replies (5)

I've decided to get my MBA after having completed my undergrad at TESU. I'm stuck between Pitt state University that holds an AASCB accreditation and is $11970 vs Eastern University that holds an ABSCP accreditation and is $9900.
I'm looking for something that *sounds* good to an employer "they might confuse Pitt state uni with Pittsburgh PA which is geographically close* and also not too expensive. Does the accreditation matter? I haven't seen too much conversation around PSU. Any insight?

  How are classes at APU?

I'm looking at American Public University for some of my ULs in a TESU biology degree. Would love to hear from people who have taken classes there what the structure etc is generally like (even if the ones you took weren't biology).

  125 free non credit courses in Spanish
Posted by: Avidreader - 09-28-2024, 10:27 AM - Forum: Free Courses and Certificates and Good Deals - No Replies

The Carlos Slim Foundation has a website called Capacítate para el empleo, which offers 125 free online courses that will issue an achievement once you complete them. They have no college degree value and are self paced.

Topics are wide such as gardening, being a dishwasher or waiter, along with tons of tech degree related subjects such as IT cabling and web development which could serve as a useful refresher course. They also have a Mexican Sign Language course.

They have some diplomados without university accreditation in tech subjects like web development or Big Data, Fullstack and some environmental and health ones too.

  WGU MSCS and MSSWE
Posted by: sanantone - 09-27-2024, 09:05 PM - Forum: WGU - Western Governors University Discussion - Replies (17)

According to someone on Reddit, WGU is designing an AI degree program. That's not hard to believe and, at this point, we'll probably see degrees in everything before WGU finishes that master's in computer science.

  TESU Biology Bachelor
Posted by: kakasahib - 09-27-2024, 07:42 PM - Forum: TESU - Thomas Edison State University Discussion - Replies (1)

Hello Everyone. 
Need some advice who has completed TESU Biology major. My kid she wanted to quickly finish the TESU Biology degree to apply for admission in MD (MBBS) in Guyana. SHe has about 112 Sophia Credits, about 40 Credits from CUNY with biology and chemistry. But traditional college is taking too long and Guyana only need basic Biology Bachelor degree for MBBS (MD) program. Any suggestion that what and where to look for Bio major in TESU? 
I am NJ resident for 3 decades so i see no issue with in-state fee. Thanks

  Sophia Credits Question and updated plan
Posted by: MCMDF79 - 09-27-2024, 06:40 PM - Forum: Saylor.org, Straighterline, Study.com, Sophia.Org, Coursera Discussion - Replies (10)

Hello everyone!
I applied to UMPI and just got my acceptance email to begin during Fall session 2
Can anyone share the maximum amount of credits they have achieved in one month through SOphia? (I started Sept 16th and have 2 courses finished so far)
I am not sure I will be able to get to the 90 credits through Sophia before the Fall session begins. 
Also, if I defer my acceptance to begin in Spring, will UMPI still review my transcripts so I know what i'm doing, and what electives I can take to fulfill their requirements?

I am currently taking Bio lab and visual communications. I believe I will need to take intro to ethics to complete all the Gen EDs,  and a bunch of electives to get to 90 credits or more.
Here is what I have so far, updated courses in red 


Your Location: Cailfornia, United States.
Your Age: 45
What kind of degree do you want?: BLS Educational Studies Minor
Current Regional Accredited Credits: I have an associate degree on behavioral sciences  From Pasadena City college in CA

These are the equivalencies for transfer to UMPI towards general Ed: 
Subject - credits - grade
ENG 101 3 credits A
ENG 121 3 credits A
POS 101 3 credits B
PSY 100 3 credits B
SOC 100 3 credits A
ART 107 3 credits B
MAT 117 3 credits B
ANT 100 3 credits A
HTY 161 3 credits C

SOPHIA COURSES
Human Biology 95%
Enviromental Sciences 88%

I also have the next that I'm not sure would transfer as electives from my community college

SPEECH 10 3 credits B
PSYCH 21 3 credits B
ITALN 1 5 credits B
GEOG 1 3 credits A
HED (health ed) 3 credits A
PEACT 39B 1 credit A 
CHDV 10  3 credits A (these child development courses don't show up on equivalency website)
CHDV 15 3 credits B
CHDV 117 3 credits C
CHDV 120 3 credits A

From  CAL State LA (started courses for Legal interpretation and translation)
ML790A 5 credits A
ML 790B  5 credits B



Current ACE, CLEP, or NCCRS Credits: CLEP Spanish 80


Any certifications or military experience? no
Budget: The lower the better
Commitments: Stay at home mother of 2 school age children, and wife (husband works from home)
Dedicated time to study: Most weekday mornings and some evenings after kids in bed (around 4 hr)
Timeline: ASAP
Tuition assistance/reimbursement: None

I'm a married mother of 2 kids in school, live in CA. I am fluent in Spanish (born and raised in South America). I wanna have a degree to check the box but hopefully in the future achieve a masters and put it to work. 

Thanks!
