Helped Needed with Review of TESU evaluation

[vetvso]

I have been out of the country working for several years, and now that I am back I'm very excited to be able to have access to a testing center again.

Here is my new degree evaluation from TESU and how some of the credits where distributed seems confusing to me. I would really appreciate it if everyone can take a look and give me some advice/feedback on how I should proceed.

[Flelm]

Just as an fyi, you missed one spot where your name is still in your TESU evaluation.

[vetvso]

Thanks but since I'm very public anyway it ok.

[vetvso]

I have also sent a message to TESU advisers and asked if some of the other credits could be moved to fill new basic requirements. Speech was put in an odd position, and I have another 15 credits of social sciences after this current semester.

[dfrecore]

Speech should be moved to fulfill the Oral Comm Requirement
One of your math courses should be moved to fulfill the Quantitative Lit Requirement

Not sure why this is not automatic, really strange, since it only seems to have become a problem on this forum in the last few days (another one where requirements weren't fulfilled in the same way as yours aren't).


I would also see if any of your grammar/comp or comp/styl courses can fulfill the English Comp courses (not sure what those courses are, but if they are considered English I & II at the school you took them, TESU should consider them that as well).

[vetvso]

Any idea what fulfills Information Literacy (Not Started) I am just going to take tests and try to test out of the remaining.

[Flelm]

Sanantone's TESU General Education Options After July 1, 2015 - Degree Forum Wiki - Wikia - From the wiki

Thomas Edison State University | General Education - 2016 or after - TESU's courses that satisfy the requirement.

I am planning on taking the Technical Writing DSST to fulfill my requirements.

I could be wrong, and have been plenty, but I think you can move your World Religions course to the Info Literacy spot. That is what I am using going by the spreadsheet that I made with the help of Dfrecore.

She would be much better to give you the information than me.

I've taken the SL religion course and that's where TESU put it for me as well.
