TESU BALS degree plan

[dfrecore]

Hi, I attach here a new degree plan for BA CS at TESU. Would you please have a look into it. Thanks

Just a quick question: where did you get this template?  Because it's wrong.  Knowledge of Human Cultures is wrong (you can't just do 15cr of SocSci or Humanities, there are VERY specific things you need here); and the courses listed in each area is wrong (Public Speaking and College Algebra are not required, you can use any number of courses for these).  Understanding the Natural World is wrong (you can use NatSci OR CompSci courses).  And the Electives in IIc area can be NatSci, but can also be CompSci or Math.

So I would say that you are either misunderstanding the requirements, or whoever put this degree plan is, and you should not continue to follow it until you understand the requirements better.

Specifically with the degree plan:
1) The ACTFL OPIc Spanish exam cannot be used entirely in the Knowledge of Human Cultures. You can use 3cr for Humanities, and 6cr for Humanities/SocSci. the other 3cr will go in Free Electives
2) Learning in the Digital Age cannot be used in that area, it's a Free elective
3) Sophia's Intro to IT duplicates the Computer Concepts TECEP, so you have to take that out
4) You have an 18cr term at TESU, which they won't allow; remove Intro to Programming or Python Programming
5) Add the 1cr PLA-100 course so that you have the 16cr term that TESU will allow
6) You need a History course
7) You need a SocSci course

This puts you at 28cr of RA. Again, I'm going to suggest ONU's English Comp, as I've heard zero good things about Sophia's English Comp classes, and they are taking so long to grade papers now that you'll be hard-pressed to finish in a month, which means that if you go into a second month to finish each course, you're now at $158 for that - meaning it's more expensive than ONU at $150. And I've heard excellent things about ONU.
