Duplicating a Sophia Class - dillpickles - 07-10-2023
Edited w new question:
If i transferred in an equivalent for computer operations, what happens if I register for that class?
I'm trying to get the 15cr residency waiver.

I do not know for sure but my guess is that they will keep the TESU class and move the other out of the transcript? if you are lucky and are somewhat different maybe to electives....

It doesn't matter where it goes to, I just want to make sure that I'd get residency credit for it!

TESU will always keep the RA credit over Alternative (ACE, NCCRS etc). You will get residency credit for the course in this case; assuming you pass, which I'm confident you will - being stated for clarity

The alternative credit class gets bumped down to the 'other courses' field if they duplicate. If it doesn't duplicate and you're using it for some part of the degree plan, it'll hit one of those required spots. You'll get that course to go towards your 15 residency credits if you pass the course. Question, what are your other courses you'll be taking to get the rest of the 15 credits?

I see, if you're paying for a flat rate term, you can do an e-pack for 3 credits, but to maximize any grants/loans, you need 12 credits, so that means, 4 courses and an e-pack at the most.
RE: Duplicating a Sophia Class - dfrecore - 07-10-2023
TESU will always keep their courses first, then other RA credit, then alt-credit. So if the course number is a duplicate to Sophia, the Sophia course will get bumped. That's perfectly fine to do.

Oh, perfect. I had forgotten about the e-pack!
