Hi, New member here. I am close to finishing my BA in Criminal Justice. I transferred credits to TESU, some of which are from JSU.
Under AOS Electives, I was advised that a 3 credit course wouldn't transfer because it wasn't theory-based. No one on the evaluation does it state it must be theory-based, only that it must be level 300-400 course work. I challenge the decision but lost the appeal. Any advice is appreciated.

A new thread would have been a better option for this question. But I wanted to know which courses didn't transfer over from JSU? Further to this question, what courses have you completed in the AOS and what's remaining? You might want to create another thread and copy/paste your evaluation.

The courses were CJ-380 Patrol, Procedure and Communication and CJ-376 Traffic Control Principles. I was advised due to them not being theory based, they wouldn't be allowed. The issue I had was that CJ-376 was awarded on my official evaluation, but has since been removed.
