Hello from Sophia!  Our courses will continue to be accepted and transferable to TESU as before.  Transferability has not changed.  

However, the process is a bit different.  Instead of the partner page (tesu.sophia.org), please create your account on http://www.sophia.org.  During this time of crisis, all courses are free until July 31, 2020.  We hope this helps keep the pathway to your degree on track.

Go forth and prosper!
Hi there

If i will enroll in free course on July30 but I will take exam after July31, is it still free?
Thank you so much

You do not need to complete the course by July 31st, only register.  Our hope is that this offering will help keep students on track to achieving their dreams of a higher education degree!

Since tesu.sophia.org is no longer up and running, is there a list of what courses transfer to TESU specifically?

great info. Do you know if approaches to studying religion can be used in area c?

also I need cis 107 for business core, I assume intro to IT will work there instead of area d?

So heads up, I was about to apply to TESU and asked about the Sophia courses and if there was a transfer guide and was told:


"Unfortunately, we do not have a Sophia course equivalency list. Once your account is active, you will be able to speak with an Academic Advisor to see which of their courses you could use to apply to your degree."

Any updates? Is there still no transfer list? TESU is so hard to figure out. Sad

TESU just received by Sophia credits from my ACE transcript today. I have 17 credits in total...hopefully, I'll be able to update soon one way or the other. Fingers crossed...that there aren't any issues.
