Foreign (canadian) bachelor's degree does not waive GE requirements?

I think OP needs SDC anyway for the Comp Sci classes in the AOS? If so, it doesn't make sense to spend possibly another $99 or more for Public Speaking (because Public Speaking can take over a month at Sophia) when you can pay $70 to SDC and have it tag along with other courses you were going to take anyway. Presentation Skills takes maybe 3 days, tops. That's if you're slow.

I went by the list of courses they said they wanted to take.

But, a month of Sophia is still less than a month of SDC, and it's less than adding courses/exams at $70 a pop if you want to do a couple/few easy courses.  Totally up to the OP.
