Where to Find Calculus 3 - sarahmac - 09-03-2023
Has anyone ever successfully transferred in Calc III? It does not need to be upper level. My partner has more than enough UL credits in the Math AOS already.
I am aware of the list of potential sources here, it's just that we know from previous posters that Westcott Courses (UMass Global) Calc III was brought in as Calc I, for example, and that people have also been unable to transfer from e.g. AMU/APUS and others. I seem to remember someone reporting an unsuccessful transfer from West Texas A&M Extension too. He was planning on Westcott so this has scuppered progress.
At this point we are looking for a successful transfer from anywhere, no matter the cost. Since he's under the military tuition model he won't be doing a flatrate term at TESU. He has 18 cr of TECEPs and will have the 24 resident credits military-associated folks need after taking the BA and BSBA capstones for $1500. We could pay for him to take Calc III at TESU, but he'd rather avoid the potential ding to his institutional GPA since he'll only have the two capstone classes counting toward his TESU GPA.

distancecalculus.com is another source that's been mentioned, although I'm not seeing a post absolutely confirming how its Calc III has come in at TESU.

If you don't need it to be UL (and you don't, if you are strategic), I would try to get it pre-planned from Oakton or NMJC.

Is this for a BA in math? The student is going for a BA and BSBA, that's awesome use of the capstones and TECEPs to get the required residency credits! I also would suggest the community college courses that are provided online...

It can definitely be transferred in. I got MAT-331 transferred from my first B&M college, Stevens Institute of Technology. The class I took there was Multivariate Calculus, MA227. Where you can get it as a single class, sorry I can't help.

There're a lot of CC Calc III source you can find, refer to this site https://njtransfer.org/artweb/kwicsrch.cgi , select TESU as destination, all institution for sources and MAT236 as TESU course number. It'll give you a dozens of results.
You'll have to check them out to find online programs if so desired.

Community College is your answer - if you took Calc I & II as RA (or Calc I via CLEP, or AP Calc). If you took them via Sophia for instance then you may have a harder time having a college accept that as your pre-req.

Its a super common class at most cc.

I do appreciate all the responses here. Unfortunately, it does seem rather like people might have missed the point. I even added emphasis deliberately and it's getting a little infuriating seeing people's often pedantic responses.
"There're a lot of CC Calc III source you can find" " Its a super common class at most cc" so on and so forth. I know. The problem is not that I am incapable of finding a class. We all have access to Google.
I asked whether anyone had ~*successfully*~ transferred in Calc III, because I was specifically interested in knowing where people had taken it who had subsequently been successful in transferring.
In case people have forgotten, this was an issue on the forum a couple of years back where TESU kept kicking back people's transfer and pre-plan requests for Calc III from a number of the usual sources, UMass Global, Oakton, APUS, etc. It was a specific Calc III issue and I have never encountered anything of the like from TESU before.
