10 years removed from school, 108 credits want to finish my business/finance degree
infoe36069 Wrote:I'm wondering if I can get a waiver for oral communication - and how I should proceed to request it
says I need ethics but just took ethics with ace and they are not classifying it under the ethics requirement but putting it under a free elective so I'm asking my advisor to reclassify (fi they do then I need a free elective worth 2 credits? to satisfy the 21 hours needed?)
where can I get information on the straighterline lab? it looks like I have credit for the science class but not the lab
for world history/us history which clep/dsst do you recommend is the easiest to knock out?

looks like I need business law as well as organizational behavior
There is a waiver process for the Oral component, basically show experience with public speaking with part of your job or as an instructor and they waive the requirement.

I would use FEMA for my free electives, you can likely have 2 of those done in a day or so, they are free and the transcript to COSC is free. Anything that indicates "college credit" on this list should suffice. https://training.fema.gov/is/crslist.aspx



Straighterline sells the science course and the science course with lab separately. I even suspect, but do not know for certain, that one could take the lab all by itself. The lab kit can be kinda pricey so check on that before you commit (the A&P lab kit is like $250) I think the general biology kit is more like $50.

I would search through the specific feedback forum and/or freeclepprep.com to select a suitable US History course. Which one is easiest is relevant to your past experience and interest and not much else. I found the DSST Civil War quick and easy...but I'm a bit of a CW buff, so YMMV. All the exams with their values is here: http://www.charteroak.edu/Current/Academ...r-list.pdf Note the CLEP, DSST, and Uexcel exams for Org Behavior and Business Law.

You are very close, could easily be done by the spring.

I'm always happy to complete the free application waiver for those applying to WGU (I get a free gift from WGU for this).  Just PM me your first/last name and a valid email so I can complete their form.
