TESU BALS Plan Evaluation - omarbeila - 08-22-2021

Hello, I've created a Plan for my BA in Liberal Studies in TESU. I've filled every open spot with a credit, and just want to make sure that they actually align.

I've linked below my TESU evaluation and my plan to fill the leftover credits.

Thank you all in advance!

Principles of Finance (200) - Sophia. I don't think that will count in the Liberal Studies category you have planned.
and I don't remember if Project Management is counted in liberal studies.

The Sophia Project Management gets put in Electives.

Ok, thank you. Can anyone confirm that Principles of Finance won't count?

Business courses are NOT liberal studies. The exception is some business communications or business psychology classes. If you check out https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Sophia.org_Equivalency_List then anything in the business section is not liberal studies. I'm not 100% sure about "Taking Charge of Your Economic Future" but I think that it is also not Liberal Studies. Everything else that has a TESU Equivalent should be Liberal Studies.

Sometimes I recommend taking a little more than the required courses, you can take these courses if you wanted to enhance your knowledge. Otherwise, these are all elective courses as they're not a Liberal Studies course. If you have the extra energy/time with the subscriptions at Sophia.org, then go ahead and take them after you've completed the required courses from them. Otherwise, work on other required courses instead...

I removed the credits that don’t transfer (the business credits to ), If you could check and make sure I’m okay I’d greatly appreciate that. I only need 3 courses to fill the liberal studies portion, 2 of them 100 level courses. I know to do the required ones but The reason I’m asking now is because I’m blasting through the Sophia courses I’ve done 4 in 4 days including the touchstone in Greek philosophy.

So I just wanna line myself up to complete all the credits I can as soon as possible, whether Sophia or other courses.

Thank you all by the way!

Easy - Take the Basic Property Technician course while you're doing the Death Investigation at TEEX.
OR take Fingerprint Comparison Link: https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/TEEX
Then complete two Sophia.org courses, such as Art History I and II to complete the remainder

Great! Thank you, and everything else fits?

Not sure what (200) - TEEX means? If it's any of the Cybersecurity courses, those probably won't work there.

You can't use both Art History & Computer Comcepts courses in the AoS, that's too many 100-level courses (Art History is ART-166 and ART-167; computers is CIS-107). You'll need a 200-level course, I would do another Study.com course (COM 120: Presentation Skills in the Work Place? PHI 102: Ethics in America? REL 101: Intro to World Religions? History or Psych has a bunch of 200-level).
