Capstone requirement change at TESU

[Supermind]

I got a confirmation from my advisor that I will be allowed to enrol for the Capstone once I complete:
English Composition- 101 & 102
‘Most’ of my AOS
99 credits applied towards my degree.

I am confident I will meet the first two requirements by January 25th, 2019. But it might be another month before I gather 99 credits. And the March 2019 Capstone registration is from January 18-February 9. Can I request TESU to make an exception in my case? Bcos I do not want to be left out of March 2019 Capstone.

Going by my estimates, I should have 97 credits by February 25th. I complete about 6 courses each month. Is there any ‘quick’ solution to earn credits? I am progressing as fast as I possibly can.

6 courses (18 credits) per month is incredibly fast, without cheating I don't think there is any way to move more quickly than that. I think most people average closer to 2-3 per month. I suspect once you start moving through the UL AOS courses you may find yourself slowing down. I know I was moving much faster through the LL courses and slowed down a bit when I hit the UL and more mathy courses.

You can always explain your plan to the advisor and see if they will waive the capstone lock. Or focus on the specific courses that are considered pre-reqs for the Capstone (like english comp and any that are listed in the syllabus as recommended) and then explain that youi've completed those requirements and ask for the waiver.

Thank you Merlin. In my case, I decided to tackle my UL courses first. I am left with only one more UL course to go, which I hope to complete in January. Once I transfer my credits in January, and near about 80 credits, I will make a request.

After January 2019, I will be left with mostly only ‘filler courses’ to complete- all electives, etc.

Sounds like you'll have all your AOS completed by then. I suspect if you can show that and the english comp courses as complete, you should have no issues.

That will be wonderful.
