I called TESU. They said the residency waver fee is $2000 on top of all the other fees you need to account for.
Couldn't tell me if the GI Bill would cover it.
With that in mind I am changing all my stuff over to Excelsior. At least for my AS.
I don't think I'll be changing my BS anymore. We'll see how this all works out.
I've called TESU a few times now, as well as Excelsior to move towards getting a degree with one of them. Excelsior > TESU in friendliness and responding to calls/e-mails.
An AA at TESU is still cheaper than EC, because at EC, you have to pay $1065 for enrollment plus $1530 for a capstone. The ASBA and AALS at TESU are both cheaper, and neither requires a capstone - $2000 for the residency waiver is your only fee (I didn't count application fees or graduations fees - both of which are cheaper at TESU). Not counting testing/courses brought into both schools (which is going to be the same price), the fees at each school are $3190 at EC and $2398 at TESU.
I suppose if you get a different degree, that might make a difference, but for those 2 at least, TESU is better.
