TESU History UL options - Rteurowise - 10-08-2017
Hello everyone, I recently started my path to a TESU History degree. I've obtained the Study.com scholarship and I'm trying to decide which classes to take there, but the only UL class option I see is History of the Vietnam War. I'm curious if anyone knows of any other sources of UL equivalencies. I need 18 UL credits total including the capstone class at TESU. Another is the Historical Methods/Historiography class which I'm not sure where to take. That leaves 9 UL credits that I don't see coming from any of the test websites. Is there CLEP or TESEP options? I've searched a bunch but it seems that most of the history threads are outdated. Thanks in advance.
Ronnie

Wow awesome, that's exactly what I was looking for thanks.

There's also a Uexcel exam World Conflicts since 1900 that transfers into TESU as upper level history credit. Exam itself is $110 or $145 with the package giving you 2 practice exams and a free retest. The proctor fee is another $60 or $75.

For the time being, both courses should be coming in as the same thing...
After 12/31/2017, I think one of them will be dropped down to LL if not already...

If you wanted to do them both, I would get them pre-approved by TESU. That way you can be sure. I'd heard that they came in differently now, but who knows.

I plan to finish 308 this week, if I wait until January to take the exam for 108 will it count as a different class after it's downgraded

That's probably a good plan. Also, HIS 308 is considered UL as an NCCRS course, so you might be able to transfer it in that way now (for free!), and get it onto your eval, and then worry about HIS 108 after that.

Yea, I plan to submit it before the end of the year so i get the UL credit. Does it matter if it's through ACE or NCCRS? I've been using ACE up until now.
