Change to TESC history major requirements

[cookderosa]

I just discovered TESC changed the requirements for the history concentration.

(I'm referring to this requirement: "Courses transferred to Thomas Edison State College are equated to the following levels: 100, 200, 300 or 400. A maximum of two college-level courses equating to the 100 level can be applied toward the area of study. A minimum of 18 credits equating to 300 or 400 are required.")

Since I was hoping to fill at least 18 credits with 100-level cleps, I have to rework this part of the plan.

Two questions:

1. Does anyone have suggestions for how to meet this requirement without actually taking classes for all the credits? So far I only see my way clear to testing out of at most 18 out of 33 credits.

2. TESC requires American History I & II and Western Civ. I & II. According to the catalog, all four of these courses are 100 level courses. According to the new rule, only two of these courses will be allowed to count towards their major. So how the dickens do their own enrolled students using TESC classes meet this requirement?

Thanks in advance you guys.

The American History and Western Civ are not part of the "area of study" they are in addition to it- so they won't count as your 100 levels.
One thing about TESC, they do NOT offer all the classes you need for most of the degrees- you will have to do the credit elsewhere and transfer it back.
