COSC no longer takes Shmoop (I don't think), the FEMA course you listed is no longer ACE-recommended for credit, and the TEEX courses are worth a different amount of credit now (10cr total instead of 6cr).
I would highly recommend that someone take the Bio w/Lab at Study.com instead of SL, as it's cheaper. Lots of complaints about SL's English courses, you're probably better off elsewhere (Study.com, Sophia, Saylor, etc.).
So, while this might be helpful for some people, it's outdated before you even post it. Sorry.
Oh no!
I really struggle with grasping which classes fit which requirements for a lot of these degrees but hopefully I'll get better at it and be able to contribute some generic spreadsheets that people can use. Maybe a google doc or something that can be continuously updated...
Do you know how often they update? Is it once a year, once a term or just as ACE statuses expire?
There is no set time of update; ACE recommendations expire, schools change what they will accept, they change what they'll bring things in as, etc.
Then, the course providers change things; they come out with new courses, or new course providers pop up. A course provider gets blacklisted (Shmoop).
There is just no set degree plan you can make that will work for everyone going forward.
Also, if you put set courses in for the portions where you don't have to have a specific course, it's a bit misleading, as people might think you have to take those courses, which is rarely the case.
I just wanted to say, "Thank you!" for doing this anyway. I'm sure it took you a lot of effort even if parts are already outdated or perhaps need work. I applaud your desire to give back.
