I'm trying to get in contact with my ALO to ask her this same question, however I haven't heard back from her in a week and while I'm going to attempt to touch bases with her again today, the Tuition Assistance deadline is drawing near, so I wanted to pose it to you as well:
My goal was to take several sets of two ten-week online classes between now and May 2016 through University of Maryland University College in Europe (UMUC), a Math or Physics class and possibly a Chemistry/Natural Science or an English class to start. However I’ve come across several road blocks, one being that as far as I know, our education center doesn’t have a UMUC representative to offer placement tests anymore, which means I’d have to start at the bare basics (Introductory Algebra). Taking classes will be good for me period after several years out of high school, but I want to bolster my package as well and I’m not certain that introductory classes are going to do much in that respect. The same goes for any English class that I would take.
Secondly, I’d be enrolling in a Chemistry/Natural Science course that doesn’t include a lab or satisfies the requirement with an at-home kit. Again, I want the credits to be worth something and I don’t know that they would be.
Any input that you have would be greatly appreciated!
