Nope - English I & II only.

EDIT: I just looked, and it now shows Technical Writing as an option to fulfill the Written Comm requirement, which is new.  So, I think it may be a possibilty now to take English Comp I & Tech Writing.  COSC had that as an option as well.

Tech. Wrtg. & Prof. Wt.”

Some others I don’t remember seeing anyone else post transfer results on yet:

• Shmoop Professional Writing:  ENG-306 Inter. Tech. Wrtg. & Prof. Wt."

If Shmoop Professional Writing is coming in as ENG-306 Inter. Tech. Wrtg. & Prof. Wt. will this cover the Information Literacy requirement at TESU?  I recall seeing here on the forum that Technical Writing would meet that requirement.

It used to work, but they removed the course from their list and it no longer does.

The most common courses for this are A&I Lit (Study.com and CLEP) or World Religions (study.com, SL, DSST)

Well that explains why my World Religions was placed in the Information Literacy, vs Diversity where I had expected it.  Does Shmoop offer anything that would fit into the Diversity Intercultural Literacy slot?

I did a little research on my own questions and Shmoop does offer World Geography, so that fits the requirement as it is a direct course match from the TESU list.  They also offer Modern European History, Comparative Government and Politics, and The Bible as Literature which might - any thoughts? I'm tighter on money than time right now, and need some gen eds (6 credits) and to fill the Diversity requirement as well. I've battled through Shmoop for a course once, so I know how awkward it can be.

I'm not sure what your degree is, but I have a BALS using Shmoop for the majority of the courses.  You can use up to 90cr through a single source.  For someone on a tight budget, Shmoop is a good option.

You can use World Religions in Info Lit or Diversity.  If you use it in Info Lit, and then want to take a Shmoop course, you can use World Geography as you thought.
