1-credit English Elective? - pws - 06-29-2019
I'm missing 0.5 credits for my English electives. All of my Free and General Electives are completed. Having to do a 3-credit course for 0.5 credits is annoying.
Anyone know if a 1-credit English course exists somewhere? Any suggestions for other options?

Hey pws!
Do you have, or looked into, TESU's "ENG-298 Jane Austen: Pride and Prejudice?" That is 1 credit.
HTH!

List the English courses you have taken and what they have transferred in as. Or attach a picture or spreadsheet of your evaluation. Just wondering, you’re doing the BA English, are you paying the residency waiver or are you going to finish the degree by taking 16 credits for residency.
If you are paying the residency, then I would take a 3 credit course cheap, easy, fast with one of the alternative providers, it’ll give you spare credits just in case. If you need the extra credit for residency, then take the Jane Austen to get you 5e final credit.

That might come in handy—especially considering it would be a graded course and count towards my GPA. Thanks.
Surprisingly, for a 1-credit course, it's a full 12 weeks (one discussion forum, a written assignment and one final paper). I'm guessing it's much shorter, but it just follows the 12-week semester, though.

Yeah, that will be a likely choice—however, if a 1-credit course from a course provider exists, that would be even better!
