We originally choose COSC because of this:
"You are eligible to become an undergraduate student at Thomas Edison State University if you are:
An adult 21 years of age or older (unless you are participating in a special college program) and a high school graduate, or have successfully passed a General Educational Development (GED) test."
Until we found out about this:
"Individuals not meeting this criteria, but who feel they warrant special consideration for other reasons may petition the director of Admissions and Enrollment Services and present appropriate documentation to support their being accepted to the University. Students admitted through special consideration are subject to the same academic policies and requirements as those admitted unconditionally."
It took a while, but eventually, they accepted my 17yr old. He had 9 RA college credits already with 4.0 GPA and 40 or 50 some ACE credits. TESU just had so much more info available on this forum and we needed a lot of help on this path.
