They are pretty interesting credits. Not to doubt the wisdom of tesu or anything, but I'm actually a little bewildered by the transcription of the Harvard chemistry micro bachelor's as upper level chemistry rather than introductory or general chemistry. When I looked over the description of the Harvard chemistry course, it looked like it covers similar topics to what is covered in general chemistry. I guess tesu didn't want to put it as general chemistry since there are no labs, but I still don't understand why they are giving it upper level status. Of course, I haven't taken the class, so maybe there's something I'm missing in the course description that becomes evident in the course itself.
In any case, and wandering away from the topic of credit banking so feel free to ignore me, I find it extremely weird that tesu will transcribe these classes but not let you use them for credit toward a tesu degree unless it's in computer science. So, for example, you can't use the biology or chemistry courses toward a biology or liberal studies natural sciences degree at TESU. Since I am apparently now enrolled in tesu, I plan to ask my advisor if they really truly will not accept those microbachelor's credits for anything other than computer science, but I'm not hopeful.
The Verizon offer is still going but it doesn't cover any of the microbachelor's courses that I looked at, or even any ACE credit recommendation courses for that matter.
Curious, though, what would your purpose be in credit banking? A credit bank transcript can't be used to apply to US schools of higher education. They would want to see the original transcripts. (For the micro bachelor's, the tesu transcript is the original transcript, but not for any of the other credits you mentioned.)
