Emailing TESU about planning external credits into academic evaluation

[LevelUP]

I've been told not to involve TESU advisors in my degree planning (regarding ACE credits and the like) at all, ever.

Making absolute statements about subjective matters can often lead to the use of the fallacy of "false absolutism" or the "fallacy of hasty generalization."

What I usually suggest is:
1. Check the Wiki.
2. Check with df members.
3. Then ask TESU advising as a last resort. 

Question 1: Is emailing advising about the four Coopersmith courses I plan to take worth it, or should I just YOLO the courses and send a transcript?

Question 2: Is there any point in trying to get them to update my academic evaluation/MyProgress with all the Study.com and Coopersmith equivalencies? As in, is that likely to protect me (or hurt me) in any way?

TL/DR: I don't know how to approach (taking and) transferring in four Coopersmith courses:

a_ ENG-202: American Literature Survey: 1900 to Present 
b_ [UL3] LIT-401: Medieval Hispano-Jewish Poetry 
c_ ENG-211: Constructing and Writing Logical Arguments
d_ LIT-302: The Works of Arthur Miller
OR
d_ LIT-301: The Works of Herman Wouk

Should I ask (email) TESU Advising before taking them? I've seen them all recommended on the wiki, or successfully transferred by people on this forum.

If I know what all my SDC (and Coopersmith) equivalencies are, should I go ahead and ask TESU to plan in the TESU equivalents on my academic evaluation? (To have my remaining credits planned out, in written form, in case any policy changes arise.)

You can email advising. 

Letting advising update your academic evaluation won't hurt you.
