COSC Business Degree planning - Step 1

[cookderosa]

That makes some sense now that you've broken down how they bring in classes, etc. Thank you for that!!

I applied yesterday, so I'm anxious to see. From the sounds of it, I'm close! I am going to knock out SL Bus. Ethics and hopefully finish up with my Chem Lab by the time I get a response from COSC. 

I wonder about the other Shmoop courses-- haven't seen anyone else posting about where/how they slot. AND I can't find equivalencies for some of the SL courses- for COSC. Oh well, we will soon find out. 

And as far as 1 UL course-- I'm not sure that exists! Although I say that and I remember TEEX recently had one of their courses listed on ACE that comes in at 1 UL for business or information risk mgmt or intro to info security. Maybe that'll work? 

Thank you!!

Yeah, I am not sure of any 1 credit UL classes, but any 2 or 3 credit one will work. I do not think there are any more Straighterline classes that can get it, but there are a couple Shmoop classes that should work if your evaluation comes back like mine. As I said, it wouldn't surprise me to see you get UL for that Vietnam War class so you might not even need one. I did read about the TEEX one with the reevaluation. Might be something to look it to if you need one. If you don't mind, please post your evaluation when you get it. There is a lack of recent COSC examples and any example might shed some more light on to them. Been seeing more people choose COSC lately so it might help someone else.

Cookderosa is right that you may need more Liberal Art credits. I didn't count yours up to check.

The reason I said that is because my son started with that degree (we did switch which had nothing to do with it) but his business credits didn't fill a lot of upper level requirements, and he had a lot of gen eds from high school Straighterline- so while I wasn't really degree planning for him, I was trying to make sure he had a nice distribution of LL gen eds and the basic business core. After his eval, he wasn't even close to enough liberal arts or upper level - BUT- I will say that there are some studycom courses that are business but come in as upper level liberal arts- I found a handful in their guide but don't have my notes handy. It's worth looking at.
