My transcripts have all come in, but my evaluation isn't officially finished. As far as I can tell, they've evaluated all the transfer equivalencies, but the one thing they haven't done yet is waive GE for having a previous bachelors (doesn't show my bach on the eval page yet either).
So everything isn't coming in exactly as I'd hoped. I have two upper level stats classes in my Addt'l AOS, but that doesn't seem to be freeing up LL electives in the AOS. I thought my COS-101 (RA Transfer credit) would slide in as an elective but it hasn't, and I also have another course that came in as CAP-123 that doesn't slot into the elective spot. Do my UL classes have to be in the AOS and not addt'l AOS? Is it just the courses I thought could be electives don't fit the bill for LL electives? Should I just be patient and wait for the eval to finish? Talk to an advisor after?
My data science course also came in as POS-499. It is "Data Science for Public Policy", and was very methods heavy. The public policy was just the application cases we looked at, although the course looked at business examples as well to understand the process (course final project was in one of three public policy areas though). The focus was Machine Learning in R. I have thoughts about appealing this to try to get something that slides into my AOS, but my guess is the best I can do is get it to a DSI course which I don't even know if it would slide in as an elective. I guess an advisor is probably the way to go on this as well? I'm just impatient and want to be able to finish planning the rest of my degree now (the second I applied really).
