There aren't always course equivalents. That's why EC doesn't list them. They tell you which type of elective they will come in as. What more could you ask for?

Something that said whether these courses duplicated other courses from different course providers.  At TESU, when something comes in as BIO-101 for example, it's very easy to figure out which courses will duplicate those or not.  There's no way to know at EC if Sophia's Human Biology course would count if you already have Study.com's Bio 101 for example.

In this case, you can always contact EC and ask them. I don't try to take courses that are similar so that's not been an issue for me. I try to get as much variety as possible. That whole well rounded student thing I guess.

There are two statistics courses. TESU does not accept Foundations of Statistics.

The TESU course equivalency page at Sophia is down. I don't know if it's been like this for a while and I'm late to the party but I thought I visited that page a few days ago.

That page has been down for a while.

I attached the Sophia to TESU course equivalency page from 2019.

"College Readiness" came in as a 0 credit course.

DEV-001 Other Developmental Course 05/06/20 CR 0.00 DEV-001 *RI *NE *DEV

My electives are nowhere near full. Developing effective teams and my Medical Terminology TECEP are the only things listed there. The Essentials of Managing Conflict is the only thing under GE electives.
