You mean, no matter the amount or what type of course, they have a set number of x credits they can award? You think it would be contestable?

Yeah, I'm thinking of doing that. Do you think TESU would allow two credit evaluations? I don't think they would accept to combine the two and then be able to pick, but maybe give the option of choosing between one or the other?

I hadn't seen it that way, thanks. Those music courses aren't easily available anywhere else. If they are transferable as free electives, or maybe a few as general electives, that would give me more options to pick from for the SDC and SL courses.

Thanks for the input everyone. Receiving my credit evaluation was a bit of a hit, since my workload basically doubled and the degree just took an extra 3k in costs—all that having to fit in the same time frame. I think I'm mostly over it now and I'm motivated again.

No I meant, maybe you can contest which course they credited, as far as the amount, that is fixed by the degree.

Honestly tho, I don’t think they would change their eval.
