TESU- what's the difference between gen ed and free electives? - BingCherry - 06-29-2017

How do I know if something is Gen Ed or Free Elective with TESU? What's the difference, please?
I'm almost done and need to be sure I fill the right slots.

Main difference, General Education is just Arts/Science, no business or technical, etc.
Free electives are anything including Business/Technical courses or Arts/Sciences.

Or even PE. Smile

Ok. They told me to take 2 more gen eds even though it puts me above 120 credits, due to how they've split up the 2 cr and 1 cr I have.
Don't know what's easiest/cheapest. Have to do it quickly as I applied for Sept grad. No more TECEPs are allowed since I applied for graduation, they said.

Cheapest/Easiest/Fastest two would be both from Saylor - Corp Communications, and Environmental Ethics
You can probably finish both on a weekend for $50. Think of them as a Davar Exam, one exam pass/fail...

Thanks! Will those duplicate what I already did?

I read through your info, the Ethics course will not duplicate as it's more Environmental Ethics and comes in as another number, 3 easy credits.
Your communications course from Straighterline comes in as COM 300 a different course as well than the Saylor - MAN 373.
