Hi everyone!
I got my evaluation from TESU today and will share it with you all here by attaching it.
I will say that several of my courses were basically no surprise when I saw them. These include Data Structures and Algorithms, which came in as COS-2410 and filled in the Data Structures requirement for the BACS, Python Programming (came in as COS-2050), Discrete Math (came in as MAT-2700) and Probability and Statistics (came in as STA-2010). The other courses were rather interesting, but because of the lack of upper level recommendations by ACEI, I didn't get a single upper level credit. I made an appeal about this with TESU today and sent them over to the online syllabi that Metropolia hosts on their website in English in hopes of getting a better evaluation. Also, they accepted all of my courses, too, which is a good thing at least.
I was kind of surprised why they didn't make Introduction to Operating Systems equivalent to COS-2400 to meet that requirement and instead it's equivalent to CIS-2190 (no idea what that is), but, like I said, I made an appeal with that info included. I think that some of them could definitely be candidates for UL credit such as Robotic Process Automation, the Robot Framework course and the Artificial Intelligence with Python course. I was kind of expecting them to be special topics courses anyway, which is fine, but I will see what TESU says. Interestingly, the Engineering Mathematics 2 course transferred in as an Engineering course rather than a Math course, so it didn't seem to apply to any degree program.
Also, I already had the Discrete Math requirement fulfilled from a community college and also had the Python Programming and Statistics courses transferred in already (I did them just to see how they would transfer in as), but I can already see that the 1.5 credits can be a problem for sure. I actually asked TESU a while ago about transferring in a course that's less than the exact amount specified in the requirements (in this case, 3 credits) and I was told that the requirement can be fulfilled by transferring in a course that is at least 2 credits, but if it's less than that, you would need to transfer in or take another course to satisfy the requirements. This means that if, for example, you take the Discrete Math course at Metropolia, then it wouldn't satisfy the Discrete Math requirements for the BACS because it's less than 2 credits; you'd need to take another course to satisfy the requirements, which you might as well do at Study.com or a local community college in the first place.
Alright, I'm done with the long rant.
