TAMUC - Sophia advanced hours - telldomis - 01-10-2024

Hello!

First, I would like to thank all of your for providing so much useful information about TAMUC's competency-based programs. Thanks to this forum I decided to apply and begin the process of completing their Organizational Leadership program later this year. 

That said, has anyone had any success transferring Sophia courses to meet the 6 advanced hours requirements? Upon review, they applied Intro to Nutrition from Sophia as HHPH 331, which provided me three credits towards this requirement. I did not think that any of the Sophia courses were considered UL, so this was a surprise to me (maybe it was an oversight?). I still need 3 more and was curious if anyone had any other Sophia courses applied as UL courses. I am guessing it is a long shot, but checking does not hurt. 

For reference, my Sophia credits were applied as such:

 Core Curriculum
 
   College Algebra - Sophia
   Intro to Chem - Sophia
   Environmental Science - Sophia 
   Introduction to Ethics - Sophia
   Art History II - Sophia
   U.S. History I - Sophia
   US Hist II - Sophia

   Microeconomics - Sophia
   Art History - Sophia

 Professional Development

  Devl Effective Teams - Sophia
  Essentials of Managing Conflict - Sophia
  Intro to Business - Sophia
  Financial Accounting - Sophia
  Project Mgmt - Sophia
  Visual Communications - Sophia
  Intro Info Tech - Sophia
  Prin Finance - Sophia
  Introduction to Statistics - Sophia
  
  Advanced hours

  Intro to Nutrition - Sophia

Welcome to the board, nice introduction, but you've missed the more important info in the addendum and template. Please update us with the info asked for in the addendum/template. Have you looked at the WIKI plans already available? Your best option is to apply, get the credits transferred and see what else is remaining.

Wow! I wish I knew to take that at Sophia for an upper level elective! I think you made a new discovery! Congratulations!

Basically, I would review this thread for TAMUC CBE options if you're looking for something other than the Organizational Leadership, I would still recommend the BAAS Organizational Leadership over anything else, including the Bachelors in General Studies.  Link: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-TAMUC-Competency-Based-Program-List

Here's the TAMUC BAAS Organizational Leadership plan WIKI, I would suggest transferring the max possible with Sophia.org first and see if anything else can come in through Study.com or another provider, then do the remaining residency credits through TAMUC.  Link: https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Sample_TAMUC_BAAS_Organizational_Leadership_Degree_Plan

Hello! I'm starting the TAMUC BAAS in org leadership in the spring and was wondering if the 30 applied major credits count towards the 36 advanced hours listed under the degree requirements? I transferred in 17 of the 36 hours, and am knocking out the rest of my gen ed courses but im a bit confused on if i'll need to take extra upper level courses on top of the applied major courses.
