Community college vs tesu financial aid related question.

[Ep2016]

The road block I am getting is the community college states that I have to be using the credit towards a degree awarding program and finding such for chem and phys is tough. Thanks for all your help. I am going to head towards taking those classes in community college at the same time taking exams for my BA in liberal arts. I do have enough electives to put towards BA at tesu

So check the box under "pursuing degree" at the CC....

Something doesn't sound right about that. You should be able to declare an intent to transfer to a 4-year institution.

Federal guidelines are pretty specific, gonna need to be enrolled in a degree seeking program or work through a consortium agreement. https://studentaid.ed.gov/sa/eligibility/basic-criteria

I'd love to hear of a legitimate alternative, but never have.

Most of the community colleges in my town have broad AA degree programs in liberal arts with emphasis in science/social science/etc. As you take classes, those courses will magically qualify for the lib arts major so that you're making progress towards the degree. We're even told by the college to pick liberal arts even though the real intent is to transfer. It doesn't matter that you'll never finish that AA lib arts degree.

Enroll in the AS general education. Every community college in the country offers it. Where you send those credits is of no concern to your community college.

Your Pell $ goes to the CC, not TESU.
