Sophia OnlineDegree comparsion - mdel210201 - 04-09-2020
Hi,
Has anyone made a spreadsheet that shows what Sophia & OnlineDegree classes overlap? I prefer the Sophia format so I would like to take most of the Sophia classes before going to OnlineDegree. Just don't want to do double work if I did not have to.
Thanks,
Mike

what school are you going to?
Here is the onlinedegree.com transfer guide: https://www.onlinedegree.com/full-transfer-guide/
In general courses with same title would overlap. Courses I know overlap at TESU: microecon, accounting, psychology, history (with sophia us hist II)
other courses that potentially overlap at other schools but don't overlap at tesu would be biology and environmental science. So for TESU you could do both biology and environmental science and be good.
The other courses onlinedegree offers are unique (cooking, cybercrime, education, etc.) are courses that sophia doesn' offer.

I applied many years ago to all three so my programs were all out of date. I know thats not a helpful answer. lol. Pretty much will go to the college that takes the most of my credits.

You might want to choose a school if you have bunch of credits already. How many do you have and major do you want? Maybe start a new thread listing all the credits you and have someone can help.

Another thing to keep in mind: Sophia is ACE, while OnlineDegree is NCCRS. COSC stopped taking a lot of NCCRS recently, and so that makes a difference. WGU also doesn't take NCCRS, other schools as well.
Since Sophia is free right now, you should be doing as many courses as possible. I wouldn't even consider OD until the free period is over at Sophia.
