Thanks!
Hey, you might want to take a look at their page, WGU is in fact on their list. I missed this one part in a previous thread, you just need to email Sophia.org to see which courses transfer as WGU doesn't have a transfer list on their site and Sophia.org didn't create one on their site either.
Thank you!!!!!! I emailed them now and will report back!
Thank YOU!!

From Sophia.org:
"WGU generally accepts Sophia courses. Its always a good idea to ask your university advisor to review the course syllabus and ensure the course will fit into your degree program requirements. Thank you."

Generally speaking, does anyone know if only watching the videos & not reading will be enough to prepare for quizzes & final milestone?

The English one I didn't use anything. Take in account I've been a Yeoman for 10 years and all I do is work with grammar.

I don't see why not. The text and the videos are identical.

If I register for one course and set a later start date for a 2nd course it does not appear to save. If I close and reopen the 2nd course still shows a start date of today.
I tried setting several courses and save a later start date of June 1 it does not save or show up in dashboard, back to today's date.
I registered for all same start date. Then after registration was done, went back and manually changed it. I had the same issue trying to set it at registration but it was a quick work around. Then, later on, started earlier than I thought I would.

I think it was accessed from the dashboard on each class. But right now all of my classes are started so I can't double check the procedure. I remember it was easy to do (my sophia courses have all been in the past 3 months) I'd suggest you use chat feature with sophia during business hours and ask.

Or just get started. All sophia courses are 60 days, and if needed you can request a 30 day extension.

Ummmmmm, not sure what is going on, but tesu.sophia.org is disabled and TESU logo is no longer listed on the partner page (but still in the text):

I called Sophia. They didn't seem to know why it was disabled either. The converted me to a generic account and told me to check with an advisor.
