Collegelady2 Wrote:Is it completely multiple choice with Saylor?

I took the Saylor a year or so ago, and it was all multiple choice then. While Saylor can be incredibly annoying and seemingly disjoint at times, I just couldn't pass up 3 credits for $25!

Looking at this on saylor these are the stated equivalent us for direct credit between tesu and saylor...
Credit in the lower division baccalaureate degree category in business
COM-373 Managerial Communications (equivalent)
MAN-373 and HRM-373 (substitute)

Dose this mean it can be any of the 3?

I don't quite understand or get the question... but it will only come into TESU as COM-373 as it's a communications course
So it's not going to substitute anything you mentioned below it (it's not equal to MAN-373 OR HRM-373)...
If you need it in the BSBA AOS, it will work... that's the cheapest $25 bucks on UL credit
If you are good with Statistics, you should also go for the Saylor Business Stats, it's OPT-351

Yes. What they are essentially saying is the course can be used as a humanities or business course in three different areas of study: communications, management and human resource management.

Similarly Organizational Behavior, which TESU codes PSY-361 or MAN-311, can be used as a psychology or business management elective.

Hope I explained this properly? I'm a bit loopy today, not enough sleep and working on fumes.

Yes thankyou that is Just what I was looking for 8 already Have MAN 373 so I was hoping it wouldn't duplicate

So, theoretically I can do a Business Communication course somewhere else, then take it again at Saylor and get another 3 credits? (assuming I pass).

MAN-373
Saylor's Corporate Comm
TECEP - Managerial Comm
Davar - Managerial Comm

COM-300
SL's Business Comm
Study.com's Business Comm


MAN-373 and COM-300 are non-duplicating, so you can take 1 from each list if you want. I certainly would!

Seems as if I explained it wrong. You cannot use the same course multiple times in the same degree plan, it will be considered a duplicate. What I meant is that the one course can me used in multiple areas of study.

So if you are a business major, you can use COM-373/MAN-373/HRM-373 to meet the managerial communications requirement in your degree.

And, if you are a communications major, you can use the same course in your area of study to fill a communications upper level requirement.

Does this make sense now?

What you can do is take multiple exams/courses that share the same foundation such as taking corporate communications (COM-373) followed by marketing communications (MAR-321). Not sure if SLs business communications (COM-300) course would be considered a duplicate to corporate comm, you would need ask Advising. During my tenure you could use both but so much has changed. Also PFs Business & Technical writing (ENG-216) is an approved business elective.

See my post above. If you want to use both SLs Business Communications and Saylors Corporate Communications it should be fine. But please, always check with Advising beforehand. TESU has a reputation of altering procedures/guidelines without notice. I've seen it happen consistently over the years since earning my degrees. I wouldn't assume anything these days. Never hurts to seek out prior approvals and ask them to plan a course into your degree when possible.

Oh ok! So I have Man373 from a separate provider so this class would be no use to me correct
