Juggling the big 3 (degree plan/path) - bit long

You should ask why CIS-360 won't go into the AOS, so we know what's going on there. And I'm assuming you said it was on the eval from ACE, and you instead means on the eval from TESU?

More moving:
Move Intro to Nutrition down to the AOS LL.
Move COM-203 from AOS to Gen Ed
Move SOS-240 from AOS to Gen Ed

That should fill your LL AOS with exactly 15cr.

What is Human Cultures??

Weird that an E-Commerce class would come into TESU as a CIS course. I would think it should be MAR or maybe BUS based on the ACE description.

They said that CIS-360 won't work in AOS, because these are the only ones they'll place there: https://www.tesu.edu/academics/courses/2...After2.cfm

"Thanks for the email. CIS-360 is not able to satisfy credits in the AOS elective section. You can choose courses for the Liberal Studies AOS electives from here -- https://www.tesu.edu/academics/courses/2...After2.cfm.

CIS-344 CAN BE USED as a general education elective. I have made that adjustment and you can see it on your academic evaluation. "

Whoever you talked to is an idiot, there are CIS courses on that list.  There has to be another reason, like "it's more applied than theory so won't fit into the AOS."  Something like that.

Usually if a course can be used as a Gen Ed elective, then it can be used in the AOS for a BALS!!!

LOL, I'd like to know too as the course has a CIS course prefix. It should come in as a Computer Info System course and at the 300 level. Those are Gen Ed for sure and should go into any CIS/CS program. I would ask the question again if you need it into your BALS UL AOS with No Concentration, if you're going for a different concentration, then it should not fit in the AOS.

dfrecore inspired me to submit to Excelsior and determine if they'd be a viable option as a backup to TESU as they gave me a bucket of credits for my NREMT-P.

At this stage I have been awarded 91 credits and I've attached EC's breakdown of what is left so you can see. I would be happy to send over my actual PDF evaluation to anyone who wants to look. It just has my name and such on it, so I have to edit it out.

EC did not evaluate the following from my ACE:
PADI-0007, SOPH-0021, SOPH-0026, TEEX-0250, TEEX-0251
Likely because they are LL and I appear to be maxed out there.

I'm confused. I guess my capstone counts as UL, so that's 3 credits there, right? What other courses can I take (path of least resistance) to complete this? What's with the depth levels, and how do I satisfy those while also satisfying the other requirements?

TESU is still in the running and I am registered and paid for the capstone there. But I don't have much time to make a decision. I have to withdrawal from the TESU capstone by April 1st if I want a 100% refund.

Gosh. I know this is scattered but I am not familiar with this process and honestly I'm out of my element.

Thank you for any help or clarity you can provide.

I do not know EC's program well, so I can't help much there.

I can tell you though, that they are picky about the written English requirement - they will not take CLEP - you have to either take it at a school, the expensive UExcel exam ($355) or the SL course. That alone might be a deal-breaker for you, I'm not sure.

I don't know what your depths are, so I can't recommend UL courses there for you. If you wanted to give some additional info, that might be helpful.

Did you try to get the Insurance Ethics course accepted as your Ethics requirement?

I think you're down to just your 30cr of UL left, and I can tell you some courses, if you give some guidance.

History and Politics are my forte so anything in that realm will keep me interested in completing the course.

I have English Comp II done, and am enrolled in Eng Comp I at SL which should be done soon. Will that work for the requirement?

As for the ethics class I definitely need to ask about that one. They didn't count it towards the requirement for some reason.

I would go with Study.com's UL History courses then, and the DSST's.

Study.com
HIS 306: The American Civil War Era (ACE and NCCRS recommended as UL)
HIS 308: Causes & Effects of the Vietnam War (NCCRS recommended as UL)

DSST (all 3 are ACE recommended as UL)
The Civil War and Reconstruction
A History of the Vietnam War
History of the Soviet Union

These won't duplicate? I already have study.com's Vietnam war 100 level class on my transcript, too.
