BIG Sophia Course Coupon!!

I think Study.com has an Intro IT course.

The religion one has a unique name but probably isn't different than Intro to World Religions.

Introduction to Information Technology - comes in as COS 110

101?

I would recommend anyone looking at this deal to also look at the respective schools link.  For example, TESU link https://tesu.sophia.org/#courses shows transferable courses and what it should transfer in as.  

However, there are things to note that the Project Management course should be Lower Level as ACE has it as Lower Level.  The site may not be updated, so I also recommend to email the school you want to attend to make sure the transfer is correct.

Nice, this is great for Sophia and for students! That's three courses for the price of one at the regular rate!
If I was starting off, I would jump on this deal in a heartbeat. There are a few classes that aren't offered anywhere else.

It's actually cheaper- their regular rate is $329 per 3cr course. This comes out to $99/class

According to the transfer guides, neither of these sets will duplicate.

I wonder if they recently changed how that class comes in?  On my evaluation, it's showing up as CIS 107.

I think that this is incorrect information.  I see CIS 110 on the transfer guide.  It is very close, but not the same at all.

Sophia's project management transfers to TESU as MAN-235 Intro to Project Management, not the UL they have on the transfer list.

Sophia's Introduction to Information Technology for me came in as CIS-107. I asked TESU before I took the class if the class could be applied to Section C: Computers under Area 2: Core for the BSBA-CIS degree. I am not sure if that influenced the coding and placement of that class???? 

I also have the ASNSM-Computer Science degree under my list of planned degrees with TESU. When I look at the Academic Evaluation for the ASNSM I can see Sophia's Introduction to Information Technology counts as computer science credit towards 16SH required under Section 2:ASNSM Computer Science. The class can be useful to fulfill credit in at least two specific requirement areas. 

I asked about Project Management from Sophia and TESU has already added it to my degree plan with the place holder codes *PL *PTE in the notes. TESU is marking/coding Project Management from Sophia as MAN-235.

SIDE NOTE: Sophia's Visual Communications is set to expire with ACE on the 28th of this month (02-28-2019). I am not sure if they will renew it. Just a heads up.

FYI, from what I was told, Project Management (either the LL MAN-235 or UL MAN-435 version) does not fit into the BSBA CIS degree plan, other than as a free elective (or a GenEd at a stretch). I tried to pre-plan project management in my AOS (since I felt it made sense and felt like an easy UL credit) but was told that Project Management is only applicable in the BSBA GM AOS. I even provided some justification of how Project Management is a core part of CIS (and CS/IT) in the real world and asked for permission or an exception to use it, and was told that they couldn't permit it since it would fail the degree audit.

Since you're also pursuing a BSBA CIS degree I'm wondering if you got any kickback in trying to get it planned? Perhaps they revised their requirements recently or something? I tried to add Project Management to my plan around September. My degree was on the 2017-2018 catalog, so I suppose it could have been changed in the 2018-2019 or 2019A catalogs.

I should have also said that I am using it as a Free Elective for my BSBA-CIS. I was just confirming the coding of it as MAN-235 and not the placement of it.
