Looking for 1 unit or just 0.5 unit UL Computer Science course

I wouldn't recommend a PLA done for just 1 credit, it's a waste of money and resources at the school. PLA generally is used for multiple credits, you're paying a price for up to 12 credits, why not do a PLA for 12 UL credits instead of just 1. The reason is, that's the most cost effective way to get UL from experience/experimental learning outside of the classroom. It will take at least a month to write up and get your assessment evaluated.

Is that how the PLA works? Wow...

Btw, I am about halfway done learning the Linear Algebra. So, I guess I will just take the exam in the next two weeks or so.

Yup, the best usage for PLA is for UL or hard to find courses that can't be test-out-able.

For 2.67 credits instead of 3, I would request that the dean get involved and the credits be rounded up.

For now, basically, I would recommend leaving it as is and go on with taking the Linear Algebra course.
I would only check with the dean if and if only the Linear Algebra option doesn't work out as intended...
