Waiver vs. rando graded credits
#1
I'll have my 120 credits shortly, but given I have the corporate choice account, as far as I can tell, taking an extra 10 credits wouldn't cost much more than the waiver. Now, I can't say I'm super excited to do 10 extra credits, but I'll only have 6 graded credits on my transcript upon graduation. I do at some point expect to get a Master's, but have no idea when or what subject. I'm guessing that the most important courses to have graded credits in are prerequisites, and since I have no idea what I'd want the Master's in, taking 10 credits in basket weaving courses might not really help me much anyways. Of course, I'm not trying to get into Columbia Business School (though that'd be sweet), I'm just talking about relatively non-competitive stuff. But, I like to keep my options open, though maybe A's (rather than "CR") in random courses don't really mean much. I dunno.

I just find it hard to pay for getting nothing (waiver), and see it as leaving free graded credits on the table, of which I have little. Doing a course here and there, and extending this out a while longer won't affect me much or at all. In fact, if ASU started offering those courses for a $100 a pop again (doubtful, I know), I'd sign up for some. So that's kind of the angle I'm coming from here.
