Discovering the Writer in You sounds like Fundamentals of English Composition. I'll probably resub for Principles of Management. I think that's one I need.

Damnit, just finished Principles of Management at school, lol.

I just tried asking the chat rep as to when the courses would be available, but they basically said they don't announce in advance and that we'll just have to wait until they're published on their website.
I tried manually entering the course name into the URL (app.sophia.org/online-courses/principles-of-management) and got the following error message which suggests the course has at least been created in their system:

Unfortunately, if a school doesn't have their own Prin of Management course as UL, it's likely they won't bring in this as UL. None of the Big 3 consider this UL, so they're prob not giving you UL credit for it, unfortunately (it wouldn't matter at TESU anyway as it's in the Core).
But maybe you'll have better luck at other schools...

I got COSC to take a literary criticism course as UL when it came in as LL some years back. It’s always worth a shot.

First, they've tightened down in the last few years. Second, I was saying it about a case where a school has the exact same course in their catalog; Principles of Management is common, and so they may not bring a particular course in as UL if they offer the same course as LL. Not exactly the same thing as what you're talking about.

FWIW, Davar's page says that their Principles of Management is UL at TESU. So Sophia's version may well transfer in as UL at TESU.

They have the same Literary Theory course at COSC: Eng. 319 now, though it was LL years ago. I argued that since the class was Senior and professor invite only where I took it that it should come in as UL and they changed it on my transcript.
I’m just saying it doesn’t hurt to ask. The worst they can say is no. Best case scenario would be them working something out with you.
I’m not surprised they tightened up on this. They’ve been tightening up on so much lately. I can’t believe they still aren’t taking ALEKS. I’m planning to finish at UMPI specifically because I won’t have to take another math course like I would at COSC.
