Requesting Input/Suggestions - Eng. Comp 1 & 2, Oral Communication, Diversity/Sociology, Civic Engagement
I haven't been able to find much information on this, and what I have been able to find leads me to believe that my understanding is correct: I do not believe Saylor's English Composition 1/2 transfers to TESU, and if not, what are the cheapest alternative options I could use to fulfil that slot? And for the oral communication course, is there an alternative that can be done without the need for a self-recorded speech? I've given a number of lectures at the college level as a guest speaker, so public speaking part is not of major concern, however the process of recording and uploading a video is a bit on the cumbersome side.
I'm also a little hard pressed on finding good options that would allow me to fulfil the diversity and civic engagement sections, respectively. If others have suggestions for these two, it would be very much appreciated.
I intend on knocking out as much from Davar Academy as possible, and sorely regret not doing my first test until now, but will rush to get through as much as possible. The professional core electives and the BSBA GM AOS are aimed to be completed via Davar, but only time will tell how much is possible.
I've not received preapproval on any of the Davar couses as they seem to be generally accepted according to the information I received from Davar. Is this a risky dice roll, or am I safe to roll with it?
Progress Update
I completed the ACTFL OPIc in the Korean Language, scoring Advanced-Mid. This would be equivalent to 9 credits according to ACE, and have requested the scores to be pulled from ACTFL to the ACE Transcript. From there, I intend on submitting my first copy to TESU for Evaluation and Inclusion. Regretfully, 6 of the credits will be going to waste as I was able to fulfil the other electives with math courses from ALEKS, but its nice to have the certificate regardless for future employment purposes. That is expected to knock out 3 credits in the Human Cultures section.
I've also completed Microeconomics via Davar Academy, which is expected to satisfy the 3 Credit Microeconomics portion of the Professional Business Requirements.
And in a bittersweet twist, I was able to complete Management Information Systems via Davar Academy, which is expected to satisfy the remaining 0.50 Credits in the BSBA CIS UL AOS Requirement, completing off the CIS AOS Entirely.
This course was pre-approved by TESU. No matter what I propose, I was denied at fulfilling the CIS AOS Requirements with what I already had completed due to a mixture of incompatible courses and validity of courses relative to time taken (as it has been a few years). Subsequently, I cannot use MIS in the GM AOS as confirmed by dfrecore and TESU.
Just 42 credits left in BSBA - CIS... 51 in GM.
I took the English modular without essay clep. I thought it was a pretty simple test
