TAMUC Competency Based Program List

[StoicJ]

FWIW, I applied as well. Sent in 4 college transcripts ($25). Never mentioned Sophia, but admissions wouldn't proceed until I sent in a Sophia via Parchment. Guess they saw Sophia on my most recent uni transcript. So I sent it in ($5).

Sophia's that went in:
History to 1877 - history slot
History of art- creative art slot
College algebra- math slot
Human biology- life science slot
Personal finance- gen ed?. I'm guessing this was Taking Charge Of Your Financial Future.

They took the following Sophia's as Professional Development Electives:
Ancient Greek philosophers
Intro to stats
Intro info tech
Intro web development
Financial accounting
Intro to business
Intro to computers
Applied math (1 credit)

Seems funny to me. They could have filled all the slots with RA credits I had, but they chose to go with Sophia for 37 credits. The Sophia transfers also show letter grades and are included in GPA. When I took Sophia courses I wasn't trying to max out on grades, but I did try to do well. Weighted avg of 89.26% over 53 credits, but of 20 classes completed only 8 were A's. Of the 37 Sophia credits they took 22 were A, 15 were B, so it seems to me the intent was to get the A's on there.

Just throwing this out there in case it might help anyone.

Also, I had some RA credits that were A's that didn't get placed, like some foreign language, finite math (Sophia applied math took precedence   ), and some natural sciences. Not complaining.

I have ACE-recommended stuff other than Sophia but I didn't want to spend the time/money on getting those sent in. Like I said, didn't even want to in Sophia but they insisted and it was only $5.25 so what the heck.

Seriously considering moving forward with TAMUC.
