Any 1-credit, letter-grade courses? - ctcarl - 04-22-2021

I just need one letter-grade credit.  I'm not certain that it has to be RA, but that would be safest.

But I'm up against a deadline so I'm looking for something self-paced and asynchronous, that I can bang out and get transcripted ASAP.

Anyone know of a specific course that would fit the bill?

Thanks!

The only ones I know of are the ones at TEL. $67 for either science labs or College Readiness.

I'm trying to avoid TEL, but thanks!

The 1cr Medical Terminology TECEP would only cost $50. Oops, forgot it's not graded, just RA.

TESU has PLA-100 for a 1 credit course.  The class only lasts 1 month.

There are no books to read, papers are like 200-word ones that you can bs you way through.  I got a near 100% A in it and took less than 5 hours total time to complete it.

The PLA from TESU is a one credit course, so is the Jane Austin one people have been recommending, but it's a dang expensive option! Your fastest option is where you got your degree, Excelsior. Do an exam online with their UEXCELS by cramming all you can, just $110 plus fees.

Note: This should be your best option is you test well! Basically, the fees are currently set at $55 for a 2 hour exam to $65 for a 3 hour one, so it'll be $10 bucks more for anyone thinking of graded credit from UEXCELS that are 3 hours long.

Ugh...I never imagined that getting one last elective credit could be such a hassle.

I appreciate all the info, everyone! $600-900 is definitely too pricey for one credit, though.

There's always a 3-credit course at Olivet. Physical Geography would probably be the quickest non-math option. Not only is it short but the required assignments appear, at a glance, to be relatively minimal.

Link, please?  I can't turn up any more than one single sentence for a course description.
