Sophia Pathways Coupon Issue - Ideas? - rowan555 - 04-19-2017
My son decided to take his last transfer credit course via Sophia Pathways since with the WGU199 coupon code it will cost the same as a month of Study.com, and he won't have to do the project Study requires. Well, it appears Project Management is not on the list of courses WGU accepts, even though they do accept it; therefore, the code doesn't work with that course. I chatted with a rep who basically said they'll need to contact WGU to straighten this out and then the coupon will work. Well, my son wants to complete this course by next Wednesday or Thursday, so waiting on them to get this straight is not really a desirable option. Are there other coupons for Sophia that I haven't come across? He just needs this one more class and then he'll be ready to start WGU - it's frustrating running into this little roadblock.

I had the same issue with TESU. It only took them a couple days to resolve the issue with TESU.

Thanks. I hope they can do it even faster, he needs to submit his complete transcript to WGU by 5-1.

Maybe if you sign up with the TESU discount, then have it placed on your son's transcript...

I'll have to see if I can locate that code and if that course is on the TESU list - thanks.

They added it to the TESU list after I emailed them. In order to use the TESU discount code I suspect you'll need to have them change your Sophia profile association to TESU.
Initially when I emailed then about not being able to register for the course as it wasn't listed, they changed my profile to a default Sophia profile (no affiliation). Although I would have been able to register for the course, the TESU discount code didn't work without the TESU affiliated Sophia profile.

Thanks! I had to just set up a new account since I couldn't change his college in the account - easy enough. Signed up under TESU and used TESU199 as the code and it worked like a charm. The school shouldn't matter since he'll be putting it on his ACE Transcript, not sending it directly from Sophia. Now he can get started in the morning - I appreciate your suggestion. Their format is shiny! Almost makes me want to take some courses with them, if only they were cheaper and something I could use, lol!
