Thanks for great advice, just need some MBA direction

[rachel83az]

I will either have to call the schools and send in my info or hire someone to provide specific help.

I was REALLY jazzed about doing this, but these 3 days have been REALLY deflating. 

I spent 20 hours on Sophia courses I did not need to take:

We are trying to provide you with specific help. But you still have not confirmed WHICH school and WHICH degree you actually want. dfrecore has told you how to do COSC. bjcheung77 has suggestions for TESU. I've told you either TESU or UMPI and given directions for each. You could pay someone a few thousand dollars and you would STILL be having these issues.

I understand that you are excited and that excitement can make comprehension difficult. But you need to slow down and actually read the advice and information that you've been given. Read the wiki. Given your responses, I am not sure that you have actually read that much. It's a lot to take in, yes, and there can be information overload. But, as we've stated from the beginning, you really need to make some choices before we can help you.

There is no generic degree plan.
There is no one-size-fits-all advice.

If you really must, just flip a coin or throw darts at a dartboard or something. Getting a degree is a major life decision and we cannot and will not tell you which one you MUST choose. An ethical freelance degree advisor wouldn't make this decision for you either.

I think this is where I am getting lost. Are you saying use Sophia for whatever LL classes you can (Easier format, people seem to do well with it, etc..), BUT I will need to determine which school I want to attend to know which LL credits I will need? 

Yes and no. The Foundations courses are worthless (Pierpont will take them, the other schools will not), as is College Readiness. I did PM you a list of which Sophia courses you NEED (there were only 3 or 4, I think) and the rest literally do not matter when it comes to Pierpont. You CAN do everything and they WILL be accepted at Pierpont... but these choices may not be accepted anywhere else.

If so, are these some LL classes I will need REGARDLESS of which school I choose, so take those as Sophia 1st? 

This is as close as you're going to get: https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/So...lency_List

You need Ethics (take Greek Philosophers first) and you need Public Speaking. Beyond that, it depends on school & degree. You may need US History II. You may not. You might need both Art History courses. They might be a waste. You WILL need English Composition II but we really do not recommend that you take the one through Sophia unless you want to get discouraged.

Literally everything else may or may not be an elective, depending on both school and degree.
