Need UL history course suggestion - EGnEC - 02-10-2017
In order to finish up my degree requirements for TESU, I need one more upper-level history course. I had hoped to do Ancient Rome or Ancient Greece, possibly expanding to the Ancient World, but I'm having a hard time finding a good correspondence/independent study course.
Any suggestions?
TIA,
-Esther

Good suggestion. Vietnam War (DSST), Civil War (DSST), Soviet Union (DSST), currently studying War & American Society (TESU). And previously US History I & II and Western Civ I and II CLEPs.
I'm interested in exploring Ancient civilizations, specifically Greece or Rome, and had planned to sign up through OK State Univ this month, but they stopped *both* of those courses in December. Now, I'm scrambling to find a replacement so I can finish in June.

The UExcel exam "World Conflicts Since 1900" is Upper-Level, though I know it's not aligned with your stated interests

Ohio University print-based correspondence courses offer Ancient Greece.

Cost is about $250/ credit, so about $750 plus books and fees.

BYU IS has UL History courses, although no Ancient stuff. $534/course

Thanks all for the suggestions. BYU is definitely a possibility. I did find Southern NH Univ has the perfect course with perfect timing (Ancient Greece & Rome, runs from 3/6-5/2), and will find out on Monday what the requirements are to take it, and if it will transfer to TESU.
