Little confused about 2 depth rule at EC and UL credits
#1
Hey everyone!

I was all set to go to TESU and have been actively following my degree plan for a BALS but have been really NOT looking forward to the Cornerstone as I just took a class exactly like it for 7 weeks earlier this year at GCU. It was painful.

I saw a post here and saw someone mention EC and that they didn’t make you take the Cornerstone and it was a quick class to take for 1 credit instead. This intrigued me so I looked and saw that they had a BSLA there which was really flexible. I called and spoke to admissions and found out that they will give me 29 credits (LL) for my courses taken at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition! However, they won’t take 2 Ds that I had from 1992 but who cares (Prin of Econ and Intro to Psych). I sent all my transcripts to them and am waiting for the eval to be done. 

In the meantime, I’d like to pull together a degree plan for EC like I had from dfrecore for TESU - that is like my bible.  I’m having a hard time understanding the 2 depth rule they have and what can go in there. From what they told me, you have to have 2 depths which have 15 credits each. 6 of those 15 have to be UL. Does this mean I can take Psych classes as one depth and something else as another? So say I choose Psych, are those classes whatever I want in Psych, as long as they fit the 15 credit rule with 6 as UL? Then I just take another 18 UL credits in other things??  Are UL credits easy to find if I do this?

What the guy also told me was that 1 depth can be applied professional credits (which would be the IIN credits) but none of those are UL so this doesn’t make sense to me…

He also said that another could be business but I’d have to discuss with my academic advisor, which obv I don’t have yet.. 

Can anyone shed any light on this for me? I feel like I’m wandering around here with no purpose right now until I get this eval and figure this whole thing out. I'm also feeling like it would be much easier to follow the TESU plan because I know exactly what I need to do but those 29 credits are really not something I'd like to give up.

Any insight would be very much appreciated!

Attaching the partnership between EC/IIN so you can see the classes they are applying from that certificate.
