All classes on the wiki are 3 credits unless stated otherwise. 3 is the standard for most university-level classes.
The gen eds are a little more confusingly laid out than the core classes because of TESU's requirements. TESU limits students to 90 alternate credits per degree. Alternate providers are ones that are not college or university-based. Study.com is not a college or a university. Their credits are ACE-recommended and are, thus, alternate credits.
This means that you need an additional 30 credits from RA sources. 6 of those come from the capstone & cornerstone. It's recommended to do a 16-credit term with TESU to avoid the residency waiver fee, but this is not required. You are allowed to bring in the 24 RA credits from any RA source that suits you: TECEPs, UExcels, ONU, TEL, ASU, etc.
The reason why it doesn't give exact credit requirements for each section on the gen ed roadmap is because different degrees have slightly different requirements. You can see the exact number of credits required for Comp Sci here: https://tesu.smartcatalogiq.com/Current/...er-Science
Please note that the course numbers listed on the TESU are only recommendations based on the courses that they actually offer themselves. For instance, under Scientific Knowledge, you need 6 credits of ANY sciences. You don't have to take Earth Science and Nutrition. Environmental Science and Human Biology at Sophia will fill this requirement just fine. Or you could do one science at TEL and one science from Sophia. It's up to you.
