TESU: sophia's Intro to Sociology for diversity. as far as we know on this forum nothing from sophia currently will work in civic engagement. But the Am. Gov't from our forum host (InstantCert Academy) will work at TESU for that.

I had to argue this with them, but I used a women's history class to satisfy it. I had taken sociology and psychology of women too.

Civic engagement can't be filled by Sophia. American Government on StraighterLine or Study.com fulfills the requirement.

Hey mate! I’m starting my BA In Psychology from TESU on 1/1/21. I’m really excited but scared at the same time, I have no previous credits as I’m still 19 and took a gap year after High-School. I hope to graduate In about, 2 years or so, earlier would be even better. I work 3-4 12 hour shifts every week. Do you think I can finish In a year or two by studying on my days off and after work? Also, are the UL SDC Psychology courses hard and time consuming?

Thank you for your time ^-^.

There are a lot of "it depends" and "maybe" in your plan. However, I would say that as long as you study regularly then graduating in 2 years isn't out of the question.

I think you're in the US? Since you have to get RA credit for your degree anyway, you might want to consider getting the FREE Pierpont Associate's degree ( https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Pierpont_C%26TC ) along the way to help keep up your enthusiasm. If you graduated in 2019, you'll be able to apply in 2021; if you graduated in 2018, you can apply this year.

That’s true, it’ll all depend on how much time I dedicate to studying. How will the Pier Point Associates degree benefit me? Will It accelerate my path to a BA In Psych?

It depends. Some students get an Associate's degree because it will allow them to get a promotion at work while they continue to work on getting a Bachelor's degree. Others get one mainly as a sort of "certificate of achievement" to mark that they're about halfway done with the degree they actually want; it's a motivational thing. I got mine so I could say I'm a college graduate, even though I won't have my Bachelor's degrees finished for a while.
