TESU - Best option for Enrollment / GPA purposes - bjcheung77 - 06-02-2016
Hello Everyone,
I'm not sure if this has been discussed before, but the Cornerstone thread mentioned the course is pass/fail (C or NC only).
If that is the case, for individuals wanting to get a GPA from TESU would have to find a better and an easier, but more costly option.
Originally, I was thinking of using the Cornerstone for GPA purposes, but now it's just C/NC only (Pass/Fail), that won't help.
I've registered for an one credit course Eng 298 Jane Austen - Pride and Prejudice to have a GPA at TESU
For others, you may want to take the PLA 100 course OR the Medical Terminology course for 1 credit and get a GPA.
I don't think there are others unless it's a science lab course which requires the science course for a total of 4 credits.
Those seeking enrollment, the best option is to take a TECEP to be enrolled as it's the cheapest option.
The Medical Terminology is only 1 credit, for $38 it's a bargain to gain Enrollment for the calendar year.
For myself, I have registered for the TECEP Advertising (Marketing UL) for part of my AOS to get credit for it.
Looking for suggestions... If there are other recommendations, please update this thread.
Thanks, Bjcheung77
--- See below for the TESU GPA requirements for graduation --- Does the Eng 298 for Jane Austen count for this?
Your overall TESU GPA, the GPA in English Composition and/or the GPA in your area of study/option does not meet the minimum requirement.
Undergraduate students must have an overall TESU GPA, an English Composition GPA and an area of study/option GPA of 2.0 or higher.

I'll update this when this PLA is *really* complete just to confirm/deny that it indeed changed the GPA bit in my academic eval. The course is over as of a few days ago, but the result of the class is not showing up consistently in myedison; e.g. it's still showing as "pending" in my academing eval, I have no credit or grades for the may term showing yet, etc.
I have no idea how long it takes that stuff to update after course completion.

SOS-110 Living in the Information Age (3 credits) used to get good reviews as a "need a GPA" class.

Thanks, I'll keep that one in mind. I was also thinking of 1 credit courses to help people keep the costs down if they are applied to the GPA.
I think if the 1 credit courses count, excellent, there's 3 options for it... PLA-100, Eng 298 Jane Austen, APS-100 Medical Terminology.
