One of the schools I applied to is requiring me to sign up for an english composition course this semester. (Substitution FAIL, basically.)
Do you think it would be viewed unfavorably if I were to take Comp II at a community college? I don't have many options at this point. I could enroll in a few writing courses at the university, but they do not explicitly offer Comp II, and I am worried that the courses they do offer might not end up transferring. Additionally, I've already missed a week of classes (sort of- lots of snow days), and am about to miss another due to interviews. The community college course (if they'll even allow me in late- I've e-mailed the professor) has an online option, so I wouldn't have to miss anything while I am away.
I e-mailed the school in question regarding the available classes at the university (one of which I'd strongly prefer taking), but the deadline by which I have to inform said school of my plans in order to remain under consideration is tomorrow night. I don't know if they'll get back to me in time.
At the moment, I'm planning on speaking with both professors tomorrow morning and hopefully getting permission to take the classes. If the adcoms will allow me to take the class at the university, and get back to me in time, I'll do that... and, if not, I'll tell them I'm enrolled at the CC.
Thoughts?
