TESU academic evaluation came back a bit weird

[socsci]

Is it normal for the evaluation to come back with unused credits and areas missing. Please take a look and see if I am missing something here. Do I need to ask for the institutes ethics course to be moved and what about information literacy? should world religions fill this space?

So, I am thinking, move PHI 384 into ethics and world religions into info literacy.
Women's lit should complete group 1
English Lit and History could move out of electives to fill Liberal Studies General Coursework
Unused credits can fill electives.

Evaluations are prepared by a software program and courses are placed automatically for the best fit. (Ex: religions is upper level so best use would be in AOS. A lower level then used in the gen ed section.) Changes can be made easily, just shoot Advising an email requesting that those courses be moved in to the sections you've noted. While at it, ask that the capstone be planned so all slots are filled.

Congratulations on being one course away from completion!

[dfrecore]

Yeah, it's automated, and there's a hierarchy to it; so AOS UL courses will be filled in first, then LL, then Gen Ed specific requirements, etc.

So, just ask them to move the courses, and then you can choose which courses get moved into those slots.

Congrats socsci!!! So close! I'm still waiting on my final evaluation. I know everything should be complete but I'll feel a whole lot better when I see it in writing. It won't be 25 days until May 1 so I'm counting down.

[socsci]

Thanks everyone. I don't know why I assumed a person would be checking over the evaluation to correct things. Automated makes more sense durrrrr.

I think I logged onto the OSS everyday this week just to see if it was complete. I know they send an email when it is, but i'm pretty impatient

Since its just a computer I wonder why it takes soooooo long to evaluate.

Since its just a computer I wonder why it takes soooooo long to evaluate.

I'm not kidding when I say this: I think they put your file into a slot on the 25th business day, and won't do it before then. Seriously, mine have always come back in 25 business days exactly. There is no way that's a coincidence.

You would think there was an automated system, where the computer could generate an eval immediately, and then if it was expecting more transcripts (you tell it to do this when you apply, so it knows), it would update each one immediately upon receiving the transcript. At that point, it would release the eval to you. But no, there is some amount of manual processing that goes on, where they input it on day 25 or something.

I've send an ACE transcript, and been notified that they've received it within 2 hours, and for a course that was already in their system so no question what it would be coded as or where it would go (ALEKS College Algebra, CLEP & DSST exams) but it still takes 25 business days to get the eval. That HAS to be a manual process of some kind.

[rlw74]

I agree - I only once had an evaluation done in a couple of days but it was right after my first evaluation and I talked to someone in advising and said I had an ACE transcript coming over and it wasn't showing yet. She must have manually added it that day because it showed up right away. But the other evaluations are taking forever. I think my next one is due to process on May 1st. So I'm waiting and waiting and waiting. It is my last one so I would really, really like to see it as complete. I even talked to advising to let them know I was applying for graduation and it hasn't sped up the process at all.

[socsci]

Everything is sorted out now. They moved Religion and PHI38 and everything else fell into place. Thanks guys.

This feels sooooo good, just the Capstone left to do, but I can't start until July because of travelling throughout all of June.
