I'm looking for the four courses that will flesh out my depth requirement at EC. Originally, I considered history, but now I am leaning toward Criminal Justice, which would be a good compliment to my future work. While EC was very fast getting back to me with my official evaluation, they've been slow updating my status report and responding to my inquiry about depth, so I'm wondering if anyone else has done a depth in Criminal Justice (or another Arts & Science besides History, through exams).
My first proposal was DSST Criminal Justice, DSST Intro to Law Enforcement, EC Victimology (course) and the ECE Cultural Diversity exam (which is listed as part of the CJ major). Since then, after reading what EC online courses are like, I'm thinking I don't want to deal with the Victimology course and might want to substitute ECE Ethics for that.
What I'm wondering is, when EC considers a depth, how do they qualify a valid one? It's easy with history--they are all history courses! With CJ, I am hoping that as long as I choose courses/exams from the CJ major list, I'll be okay...but I'd like to know if anyone else has made that kind of thing work. (Or, if you've taken EC Victimology and enjoyed it!)
It's too bad I can't do an Applied Professional for my depth or I'd just take DSST MIS and with my transferred programming courses, I'd have Computer Science in the bag! Oh, well.
