Study.com CS Courses TESU Equivalency - armstrongsubero - 10-31-2018

So I emailed advising and asked them about the CS courses from Study.com, specificially the Discrete Math, Operating Sytems and Computer Architecture course and asked them if it will transfer as follows:

Math 108- Discrete Mathematics -> MAT-270 Discrete MAthematics


Computer Science 105 - Introduction -> COS-240 Operating Systems
to Operating Systems

Computer Science 306 - Computer -> COS-330 Computer Architecture
Architecture

I asked then if they do transfer like that if it can be put into my eval and they responded that they are in the process of evaluating the new courses and I will know in two week or so.

Just thought I'd post if here for anyone whose interested.

The fact that Intro to Operating Systems transfers in as plain old Operating Systems rather than an intro class is probably good news for those hoping to fulfill that requirement without a project, but bad news for those hoping to take both of Study.com's Operating Systems classes and not have them duplicate.

FYI, my latest evaluation posted at TESU today. I can confirm that CS 111 (Programming in C) came in as COS-116 (as was expected).

Bah, that bites. Still enough to earn credit though. I'd still have fixed it if it were me. Smile

I ended up with a 97% after resubmitting my assignment to address the feedback I received.

@Merlin it does bite! But I'm working with a schedule, I need to finish Discrete math and move on to Computer Architecture. Lol

There is nothing that says they will duplicate - they may come in as different course numbers, like separate 100-level courses, or separate 200-level courses, or a 100-level course and a 200-level course.  TESU may determine that the 2nd course is UL.  It all just depends on what TESU decides to do.

For instance, some Psych courses that were supposed to be UL, but ACE didn't give them UL recommendations; TESU counted them as different course equivalencies:
PSY 106: Abnormal Psychology >> PSY-235
PSY 306: Advanced Abnormal Psychology >> PSY-246

PSY 104: Social Psychology >> PSY-237
PSY 316: Advanced Social Psychology >> PSY-245

Study.com may also opt to revise the 2nd course and try to get it UL at some point in the future.
