What a deal! Just $5 per exam

I have my hopes up and fingers crossed that they'll bring out some proper STEM degrees, and not just business degrees.

So I decided to splurge a bit and signed up our 12 year old homeschooler for the lifetime membership at UPIstudy ($449). At this age, speed is not of the essence. In fact, I would prefer her to take her time with assignements, revise them (multiple times, if necessary) under my guidance and really spend time learning rather than speed running the courses. The goal is for her to do multiple courses over the course of the next 4 years before she can enroll at TESU and also top it up with UL ones at Coursera. Undecided as of which degree she will go for at this point, and things may change at TESU and with her interests anyway.

Currently doing Brilliant.org for math and Institute for Excellence in Writing (IEW) for writing and grammar.

I hope you are all doing well. I tried to do some research but I am at a loss.

I wanted to get my associates ( I need it as soon as possible)  and then eventually my bachelore's. 

I have some credits from community college (attached) and it seems that sophia is the fastest way to finish everything. (correct me if I am wrong)

I am not sure which is the fastest and hopefully easiest courses I would need to take. If this is the wrong place I apologize but I really want to help my family. Thank you all and let me know if you have any questions.

Old TESC Alumni.

Interested in options on having post-bacc credits recognized (preferably by al mat) other than the ILA/Onetranscript/Registry.

Would TESU take transfer credits as a visiting student if I took a TECEP? Would all those credits be on one transcript with my old completed ones from years ago, or would they be two separate ones?

If I chose ILA, or any of the other credit registries, would those credits be "granted" or simply "logged"?

I'm looking at TESU for the sake of having one consolidated source, but the cheapest option is what I will take if it meets my needs.

Doing this for the prerequisites of a professional credential that wants those credits "granted" by an RA institution.

Thanks for your help.

Hello,

Interested in the BACS here at TESU, here is relevant information about me

Status: US Citizen, Full time student, Ideally graduate from here as cheaply as possible.

Background: Graduated with a BS in an unrelated field from a Four Year Regionally Accredited University in the United States. Currently pursuing an MS online aiming to graduate in late 2027 in the US as well

Goal: To use my BS degree to bypass the GE courses and electives which should total me to only having to take the 45 credit AOS (Area of Study) classes (I could be wrong). To complete this CS degree with only taking the capstone and maybe another course

Progress: Ive been on this forum and just understanding what i will be getting into. Now, looking through study.com and Sophia learning to find the TESU CS equivalents and mapping where to take what. I’m just planning until I pull the trigger on signing up for study.com to knock out ALOT of CS classes which i estimate will take me 3-4 months. But some of the elective stuff was hard to find/understand. Here is a breakdown I made, please let me know if this is right. I also realize I wont have to take the SOS-1100 class since I already have a BS degree (https://tesu.smartcatalogiq.com/en/curre...ent-policy) outlined here which is kinda nice ?

Bottlenecks:
1: I am currently pursing a MS degree which has one big challenge. Lets say I do all these study.com courses to fulfill the degree and then apply to tesu to take the capstone, and then graduate after the course. I would essentially need to make sure I graduate at TESU first and then in my MS program after. I can easily take less classes in my MS to focus more on this CS and graduate later but bottom line I cannot be graduating in TESUS CS program AFTER I complete my MS or else all that hard work from study.com would essentially be voided. They outline it on their website
Second Bachelor’s Degree
If you have earned a previous baccalaureate degree, and wish to pursue a second, you must complete a minimum of 24 additional credits, including the required capstone, for the degree. These credits must be in the area of study and/or core of the degree. They must also be earned after the date your most recent degree, regardless of academic level, was conferred.
 
Worries:
1: I’m pursing a MS right now and while it wont be much more work on my plate id hate to be breaking some kind of rule here being dual enrolled. I could just not say anything but who knows. I don’t want to pause this masters and would like to get both done within the year 2027. The MS program is aimed for working adults so i figured i would just do the CS program "full time" and treat the MS as its intended purpose of being a weekend thing lol

2: the Capstone in general, from the research aspect, time consumption, and ETS major field test. I know I can just grind out the research aspect in the 12 week period but I been seeing on here the ETS exam is pass or fail and you must pass so kinda worried once I get all this study.com stuff done, apply, to only then get booted out for failing a ets exam would be soul crushing.

Again, I have yet to submit anything or even start admission now so any advice tips or tricks would be helpful and ill answer as best I can and I apologize if some things in here may not be accurate, please correct me if needed. Ill hopefully post again after applying and seeing what admission says about the course plan.

Looks like umpi's YourPace system is under review of some sort? Doesn't seem to concerning but does raise some eyebrows.

In related news, EU regulators are considering allowing rubber tires to replace concrete tires by 2030, which should significantly improve vehicle efficiency.

I need some help to complete my TESU Bio degree. After a combination from ACE, my previous college courses on bio (note: outside of the US) and UMPI meant that this is the list I have to complete. 


1. General Biology I with Lab 

2. General Biology II with Lab 

3. Chemistry II with Lab 

4. Cell Biology

5. Organic Chemistry I Lab (1 credit)

6 Organic Chemistry II with Lab 

7. Genetics 


The issue is having already done BIO 3100, given that most of my other bio transferred as 200-level credit. I still need upper level credits. Any good cheap options would be nice. Also, could I get organic chemistry just as a lab?  As of now, my budget is 5000 USD

Good idea for this thread. Looking forward to the discussions.
