ORGL 4352 - Capstone I
ORGL 4361 - Capstone II


RE: ETAMU Plan - SpartacusPM - 07-07-2025

I took Workplace Writing II with Sophia to satisfy ENG 2.

Based on the Sophia to ETAMU facebook group, someone mentioned ENG 2 (1302) at ETAMU was similar to Sophia. No idea, about Study. Looks like at ETAMU there were 8 papers plus the final.

In a previous post you mention 84 credits were transferred in, then in this post you say the 6 upper level credits are still needed.

So if I am understanding correctly. Your family has a total of 14 courses or 42 credits left.

Most here and in the facebook group complete the Google Project Management Certificate via Coursera.

As fas as Texas Government, just have them take it with ETAMU. It is going to require some work, but it is not overly difficult, expect a college level course...because it is. Smile

RE: ETAMU Plan - bjcheung77 - 08-13-2025

Seems like a good plan, get all that can be done that can be transferred in, then work on the final residency credits at the institution to finish off the degree requirements.

She will need the Texas Govt, English 2, and the 2 upper level courses along with the final 10 courses for a total of 14 classes (42 credits) to be taken at ETAMU

yes correct she did have 84 credits transferred in but 2 of the courses won't count because she needs the 2 upper level courses.  

Is the Google Project Management Certificate via Coursera something that you think could be completed by the end of August for someone who works full time?  I'm not familiar with this certificate so I apologize for the question.

My apologies, life has been so very hectic that I did not remember that I had shared this degree plan before I reposted it.

My apologies to all - I did not realize I had shared this in another thread.  I don't know how to delete this one or I would.

Thank you 
If you’d like, Please delete that extra long post detailing the breakdown so it’s less crowded and confusing.  

My apologies again for the duplicate.

It's all fine! Some of the breakdown material may be helpful for a future student.


RE: ETAMU Plan - bjcheung77 - 08-14-2025

+1, I agree, merging the thread would have the info all in one place. It's a good potential plan, will be beneficial to use as a guide.
