PLA through Learningcounts.org to TESC

[JohnnyHeck]

For Lower Level (LL) Gen-Ed requirments that can be obtained by CBEs, PLA is not the way to go. It's a difficult writing path that takes at least 15-25 pages for a single course and even 40 pages or more for multiple credits (12ish) within similar subject areas. I know this for a fact because a firend who is using Learning Counts for Applied Music III, IV, V, VI has just reported to me this criterea from her Learning Counts advisor. She is a real trail-blazer here as she is betting on the come that if she gets Learning Counts to pass her narrative that she will be able to squeeze TESC into accepting them on her initail evaluation for a BA in Music. I think her endeavor will take her about 4-8 more weeks, and then we'll all find out more about the Learning Counts-TESC relationship. In another thread AZDan is pursuing prying out of TESC where he can use PLA for his degree while using Learning Counts. I think we will all have more facts shortly. In the meantime, don't waste your time with PLA from Learning Counts if you are at TESC and have other options for earning your required credits.
