Degree plan for AAS in Applied Computer Studies @ TESU. - ROYISAGIRL - 04-22-2020
A friend of mine wants to do the AAS in Applied Computer Studies (AAS.CMPSTY1) at TESU. I made a degree plan and I just wanted to be sure it's ok and a little help on the missing courses. They don't have to be Sophia courses, but I want to make sure I'm helping as best I can.

If your friend is going for an Associates in Applied Computer Studies degree, they might be interested in a second Associates in EEST as well.
All the courses can then be placed into the Bachelors of Liberal Arts for example, they can ladder up relatively easily.
Go for the SL (LL) & Study.com (UL) combo. Here's a screenshot of both in these academic evaluations.

I'll have to ask about that part. From looking at that, the Sophia courses I picked fit where I thought they would. He won't really need SL or SDC until he decides if he's going for a Bachelor's which he probably will seeing as he can finish an associate's or two in the 12(?) Weeks or so that TESU courses take.
Thanks!
