Although I have really wondered why TESU doesn't "open up" that particular degree because I think a lot more people would go in that direction if it had the alternative credit options like the BSBA, or the other Lib Arts concentrations. There are so many great "health and wellness" alternative credits already out there it would be wonderful to be able to use them for the AoS. Also, then, a student could go in the direction that most appeals to them under that heading. So, although getting this degree this way doesn't appear to be as fast or easy as some of the other plans, I am glad there IS a way to this degree. On the bright side, it still fits our desire to earn credits in an alternative way, faster than the traditional 4 year plan. Also, it helps meet the RA requirements. I'm still working on the "actual" degree plan, slowly, and I hope the way I am working it we'll also get 16 credits from TESU meeting the residency requirements. My study partner is a great (strong) writer and, although it is a harder path this is the path he is going to take. I love writing, I know I am in the vast minority because I loved the Sophia English Composition II course. :-). I just hope it will translate well for me to love to write for a PLA, too. The "test" will be the PLA-100 class. Thank you for bringing this option up for us to think about!!(05-21-2021, 09:06 PM)k-k-k-katy Wrote:The 389 is a flat rate up to 12 credits. So if you PLA for 3 credits it'll be 389, but if yoh PLA for 12 credits it'll also be 389. It's worth it if you do more than 3 credits. I encourage PLA for hard to earn credits, so if you can do a test for it don't PLA it.(05-21-2021, 08:25 PM)bjcheung77 Wrote: Here's a write up: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-...3-Compared?Thank you! I am so embarrassed that I just didn't get it today. So, $389 is like a flat-rate fee that covers up to 12 credits, whether a person develops 1 or 3 PLAs, it will cost a one-time fee of $389, is that right? I appreciate your patience and kindness.
