These are some of them. They have added more but I don't know the newer UL ones since I am done now.


Modernist Lit = Lit 399 Special Topics in Lit
Holocaust Lit = Eng 301 The Holocaust
Shakespeare's Plays = Lit 320 Shakespeare 1
Women's Lit = Lit 323 Women in Lit
Lit in the Media = Lit 430 Literature & the Media


RE: Shmoop GenEd - originalamyj - 12-06-2017

I believe Victorian Lit comes in at LIT 369.

Last I read it came in as ENG-299.  But I may have missed an update from someone here.

No, I bet you are right. I couldn’t remember where I saw this and just did some digging. I don’t know how to quote from a different thread but when trying to figure out how to appeal some courses, KayV had said point this out to them:
“Victorian Literature   (ENG-369)   3.00 s.h.  
Readings in some of the major authors--poets, novelists, and essayists--of the Victorian period, including Eliot, Dickens, Conrad, Browning, Tennyson and others.”

I thought she was saying that the above was a TESU course and so the Shmoop Victorian Lit course should come in as that one.

But I don’t believe anyone has tried to argue that and more recently you are right, it did come in for someone as 299.

You need to take Alg I & II to get credit for MAT-121
Don't bother with Pre Algebra, as that is considered developmental at TESU, no credit.
Pre-Cal is MAT-129, but hasn't been confirmed (not a ton of people take it if they don't have to, and probably not through Shmoop.

These are all unknown at this point, and you'd want to get them preplanned.
