Credit transfer from Patten to TESU - failed course? fees?

[socsci]

I never thought about this at time, but I failed my last course at Patten because I never finished the project.

I was so disappointed at the end that I just couldn't be bothered to finish it. It was a Psych course and there were many questions in the chapter tests, on the pre-final and final that were outside of the study material. I contacted my student advisor and was fobbed off with a ridiculous reason. There were questions about a psychologist that was not included in any of the study material, when I explained it to the advisor she told me that it was because I was trying to challenge the course and I should complete all the assignments. I checked through all the assignments and links and read every page of the textbook and the psychologist the questions were about was nowhere to be found.

Anyway, when I request my transcript to be sent to TESU will it include the failed course and show as an F? will that affect the GPA?

For those that have transferred from Patten to TESU, were there any fees? and how did you go about it?

When you transfer courses, only courses that you passed (depending on which course and which degree, that could even be a D) will come over to your school. So TESU wouldn't bring over your failed course, and it wouldn't show up on your TESU transcript.

BUT, your GPA also doesn't come over to TESU - GPA's stay with the original school. So, if you have an F at Patten, it will affect your Patten GPA. Your TESU GPA will only include actual courses you take at TESU - which may end up being none. I personally won't have a GPA at TESU, since I have 5 TECEP's, and will have another one plus the Cornerstone - none of which are graded or count towards your GPA there.

That's interesting, I didn't know that the grades don't count towards the GPA. So to get a GPA at TESU a cours

Yes, Patten's psychology program is absolute garbage. I had a similar experience there. The exams have nothing to do with what the courses taught.
