Hey everyone!

I hope you're all doing great. ? I'm currently working on the final assessment for my Market Research & Analysis course (BUS 261), and I need your help with a super short survey. It should only take about 3 minutes of your time.

I'd really appreciate it if you could take a few minutes to fill it out. Your input is super valuable and will make a big difference. Thanks a ton in advance!

Cheers,

Hello everyone!

I recently noticed that UMPI's webpage for the BABA Project Management & Information Systems says that MAT 131 Calculus can be taken in place of MAT 140 Mathematics for Business. According to UMPI's official transfer equivalency database, Sophia's Calculus course should transfer in as MAT 131 Calculus. However, the degree plans that I have seen for this major include Study.com's Business 110: Business Math instead. Has anyone been able to successfully use Sophia's Calculus course to meet the MAT 140 Mathematics for Business requirement for the BABA Project Management & Information Systems?

Thank you!

I'm starting a Ph.D. in Information Technology with an emphasis in Artificial Intelligence at The University of the Cumberlands this January.  Is anyone else currently in this program?  It seems somewhat affordable (compared to other programs) and regionally accredited.

Happy Thanksgiving IC-Forum Classroom ‼️

Has anyone had experience with or knowledge about the Atlanta College of Liberal Arts and Sciences (ACLAS)? I've found some concerning information I want to share:

Key points about this institution:

• Claims to be based in Atlanta, Georgia
  
• Offers online MBA, MCS, and DBA programs
  
• Only has CPD (Continuing Professional Development) recognition, NO formal academic accreditation
  
• Currently appears on the Georgia Nonpublic Education Commission (GNPEC) consumer alerts page
  

1. What's the business model here - how do they sustain operations without accreditation?
   
2. Are there any regulatory/legal implications for operating this way in Georgia?
   

Update: Weekly versions of courses are now non-proctored, on-demand versions of the courses proctored. See the most recent information towards the bottom of this thread.

I've been procrastinating College Algebra, Precalc, Calc I from ASU because of the proctored midterm and final exams. 

I took a look at the syllabi for these courses and found out that the courses were recently updated to non-proctored exams! 

https://ea.asu.edu/courses/

I already took these courses on Sophia but I'd rather have RA graded credits for future grad school applications (MAT142 - College Mathematic is still proctored) 

The following math courses are now non-proctored!! They are self paced and enroll anytime. Can be finished as fast as possible. You pay $25 to start. Then pay $400 to get it transcripted. So $142/credit total for a 3 credit course or $107/credit for a 4 credit course.  If you get a B (89.49%) or lower, you can unenroll, pay $25 again, and redo the entire course without getting a W on your transcript. 

IF finished before 6 weeks, one must wait a total of 6 weeks from the start date to pay $400 to transcript it. I was able to finish college algebra and precalc in just a few days and have to wait another 5-6 weeks before transcripting. I'm working on Business calc now!

Hello,
I am an international student and am thrilled to have found this forum, which is filled with invaluable information and supportive members.

I plan to apply for a master's degree in Computer Science in the US, without having a bachelor's degree in computer science. I've noticed that some universities require applicants like my case to complete specific courses beforehand, such as Data Structures and Linear Algebra, and to submit transcripts with grades. I'm curious if courses taken from learning platforms like Sophia or Saylor are recognized by most universities. Are they potentially a better choice than Coursera, given that they come with ACE-recommended credits?

Additionally, since some institutions prefer applicants to have completed courses from a recognized university, would it be acceptable if I transferred credits earned from Sophia to a school like TESU or WGU? I'm uncertain if these schools would retain the original grades on the transcript.

I'm also trying to determine the most affordable and effective path.

I've reached out to one of the universities for clarification but am yet to receive a response. I'm eager to start the necessary courses, which is why I'm seeking guidance here.
I truly appreciate insights from anyone who has navigated a similar path. Thank you for taking the time to read my post.

This has started to happen a lot more lately.

Men Only Want One Thing. And It’s Not Money, Its’ Not Power, It’s Not Love

https://www.tiktok.com/@the_maestro.s/vi...6875263264

I am a student at Penn State majoring in Finance, and I'd like to pursue a double major in Economics. For me to be able to do that and still graduate on time, I need to find some transferrable 300 or 400 level (UD) Econ credit. Doesn't have to be a direct course equivalent, it just needs to be at least at the 300 (upper) level. 

Does anybody know of a college/university that offers a good price for online ECON credit that has courses which could potentionally transfer at that 300 level. 

I can basically get any course evaluated before I've taken it relatively fast; I will literally get a shit ton of courses evaluated and then figure out what I I'll take, so if anyone has any ideas lmk. Penn state also has an awesome transfer credit tool so I can check instantly if it has been evaluated before 

I've been searching for weeks and the best thing I've found so far is LSU's Online program, I can take a Money & Banking class for $866, but that's a lot of money and I'd preferably like to pay less then that. If I can find courses around the $500 mark I would be so happy.

Thank you sm ?
