Hello everyone!
I'm working towards dual degrees in BA Computer Science and BSBA Computer Information Systems (TESU). English isn't my first language, so I'm hoping you'll bear with me if some parts of my post seem unclear. I've attached my evaluations so far, and I'm grateful for any advice you can provide based on those.
Keep in mind that I'm currently enrolled in TESU (I have registered for the Medical Terminology TECEP) as a BS CIS degree seeking student, so the BA CS evaluation might not be 100% accurate.
I haven't yet applied for an ACEI official evaluation for my XAMK IVGC certificate, which shows 27 ECTS credits. However, due to the office closure in August, my Transcript of Records (TOR) currently only shows 25 ECTS credits. I'm not sure if this 2 ECTS difference matters a lot, but since I need to get my credits evaluated asap (and I'm guessing ACEI will only accept the TOR, not the certificate), I'm thinking the 25 ECTS should be okay.
Right now, I'm in the process of getting Identification to enrol in Discrete Math and Operating System courses at Metropolia. Don't worry about Business Law and English Composition I and II which look like they're missing - I've finished these, but there were some problems with the Credly badge, so I've sent a new transcript.
For Civic Engagement, I'm thinking about taking the US Government course from Sophia, and for the additional Social Science course, maybe Introduction to Sociology, also from Sophia. If there are any faster options, I'd love to hear about them.
For the CIS AOS UL requirement, I believe I need to take Business 303: Management Information Systems from Study.com. Can anyone confirm this?
I'm hoping the remaining elective credits will be covered by the IVGC credits. Is that correct?
I'm thinking about signing up for a flat tuition term at Thomas Edison State University in August. I plan to take CIS-3510 Software Engineering, PLA-1000, SOS-1100 Information Literacy and the two capstones. But I have a question about the two capstone courses. My understanding is that I need 100 credits applied to both of my degrees before I can register for these, so I need to reach that amount before the term starts. Can anyone confirm that I can't register for the capstones halfway through the term? Sorry if that's a basic question - just want to be sure.
My aim is to finish all of this by December because I'm thinking about applying for a Masters program, and the applications start early next year. So, I think registering for the August term will help me reach my December graduation goal.
I might be forgetting other things that need to be pointed out.. Any advice or guidance you can give would be really helpful. Thanks for your time and any help you can offer!
