Cheapest/Fastest way to get TESU transcript only for ACE credits without degree

[PLEX]

The transferred courses appeared on my son's official TESU transcript in January that we ordered for a scholarship application, despite him not having graduated yet. It is the unofficial transcript available via student self-service that only shows the internal courses and TECEPs.

They did not say you have to graduate to see the transferred courses on the transcript, but they told me that you do need to complete at least one TESU course or TECEP, contrary to a lot of the advice I had seen saying one must only be enrolled - such as via merely registering for a TECEP - to be able to get a transcript with the accepted transfers showing.

Interesting. Guess doing one of the easier TECEPs for $156 would be the way.

I don't recall, do you need to do the TECEP? I can't remember if you're enrolled regardless if you skip that TECEP or pass/fail it...

Merely registering for a TECEP after admission acceptance does give you "enrolled" status. 

However, that does not get accepted transfers onto their transcripts - contrary to much of the past advice I read. 

They told me that a fully "enrolled" TESU student, with fully accepted and recorded transfer classes showing both in the transfer review section and the degree plan of the portal, will still find their TESU transcript (both official and unofficial) pretty much empty - save for notation of any registered-but-not-complete courses/TECEPs. 

Once you complete/pass one of their own offerings, then they also transcript your accepted transfer courses with course titles and credits - but never showing the grades earned at other RA institutions.

the rep said that the transcripts will still not show grades for accepted RA transfer courses! (I failed to further clarify if, perhaps, the transferred courses' grades might show after one graduates with a TESU degree..?)

Unfortunately, the rep was mostly correct. While TESU does report the institution, original course code& name, and credits for each transferred course, the letter grade is not shown. There is a column for grades, but it's blank for all of my RA transfer credits. Grades are reported for TESU credits, and CR is shown for everything pass/fail at TESU/ACE/NCCRS/CLEP/DSST. The situation does not change with graduation. Here's a screenshot from the final copy of my official transcript TESU included with my diplomas last month:

Thanks for clarifying that they do show original course names, and congrats on pushing through their snafu and earning all those degrees and certificates!! 

It seems wild that they don't show the grades for the accepted RA transfer courses. Did they include your transfer grades in calculating your overall GPA? And is that overall GPA shown somewhere on the transcript?
