DS has been unable to get approval from his out-of-state public U for ANY courses taken at a local public U of equal reputation. Certainly not in his major, but not even an Anthro/liberal arts course needed for U broad spectrum requirements.
DS decided to enroll anyways (3C summer, after CORTRAMID, he was West/1st of 2 sessions) and prep for anticipated hardest class. Best he could do to make ~20 credit hour semester a wee bit easier if he couldn’t get one of the courses out of the way.
