How do Sophia courses transfer to TESU? - nomaduser - 12-09-2020

Hello guys,

I created an Individual Learner's Account on TESU so that I can transfer Sophia.org courses.

Do you guys have a full list of Sophia.org courses that transfer to TESU?

and once you transfer Sophia.org courses to TESU, do you get letter grades on TESU transcript? or numeric grades?

Thanks,

You just get a "CR", no grade.

Why would you create that account? Is it free?

 ACE just switched from their credit banking system where you could send batches of credits to TESU to a new system using Credly. It may take some research to learn how to get proper credit from Sophia to TESU.

No idea how the brand-new Communication at Work course transfers but, otherwise, you can find equivalencies for all the courses here: https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Sophia.org_Equivalency_List

We know how it works, more or less, right now. Information can be found on this page: https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/American_Council_on_Education

Yes, that account is free to create on TESU. So you can enroll in TESU as a non-degree student and collect credits.

It can accept MicroBachelor credits for free as well. However, yeah, there'll be no letter grades lol

Have you guys tried to transfer study.com's Discrete Math to TESU?
How does that course transfer?? Do TESU actually give you 'Discrete Math' title on transcript? or does it become an elective??

TESU brings it in as MAT-270: Discrete Mathematics.  As to whether it's an elective or not would depend on how many courses you already had, and where they were placed.  If you don't need MAT-270 in your degree plan for instance, and already had a course to fulfill the Quantitative Lit requirement, then it might get bumped down to GE Electives; if you had your GE Electives filled, it might get bumped down to Free Electives.  It just depends on what you have and what you need as to where it will go.
