Milestone Grading - Infinite-Telephone52 - 05-10-2023

Does anyone know where to find milestones grades, if any? Or will they just be affirmed or not without grading? Thank you!

Milestones don't get grades. They either get affirmed or don't.

Great, thank you!

How long do I wait to get affirmed or not ?

They have up to 72 hours to respond to milestones. I completed one last night and another this morning, and by early afternoon both of mine were affirmed. This is my first class and only experience with it so far. It probably depends on the professor how quickly they respond, and whether it's during business or after hours that you submit it.

Technically, they are supposed to be affirmed within 72 hours. You'll find some professors are really fast and some are taking a week. If it takes longer than 72 hours, I'd email the professor, Cody, and Jessica every day until it's affirmed.

Everyday eh? Hmm, it really depends, they're busy and if all students do so, it'll attribute to the backlog. I would email them and if they don't get back to you, you can try a call - leave a VM if needed, be patient and wait for a response.

we can enroll in new courses only when both two competencies have been done, or one completed like Sophia? Thank you. I am waiting for affirming.

You can have up to two active competencies at a time, but you can request an extra competency if you've at least submitted a draft on both of your active competencies. The problem now is that milestones need to be affirmed before you submit your draft. However, if you've submitted all your milestones and your draft is ready to be submitted, you can also try to request another competency - the worst they can say is no.

Thank you so much, I think I should adjust my speeds. 


I have get one completed, and wait for another one to be affirmed and go on final assessment. But now, it seems Jessica will not allow me to add competencies one by one.
