Pausing Enrollment at TESU

[bradonomics]

I am enrolled at Thomas Edison in the Computer Science program (with 90 credits). I have an opportunity to pursue a degree in Nursing from a different school using a government program. The problem is, to pursue this opportunity I can not finish the TESU degree first. The government program will only pay for a first bachelors.

I can not find much direction on this. I found an article on tesu.edu called Inactive Students to Apply for Graduation, but it is too vague to be helpful. I've read here that TESU students get locked into a degree plan and that their degree plan might change if they leave and come back.

Note that the degree from the other school will take me a minimum of two years and as much as four. Given this, my questions are:

1. Is there any way to pause my student status, keeping my current degree plan?

2. If not, how often does TESU change the Computer Science degree plan? Is there somewhere I can see historic changes?

Any other advice or guidance is welcome.
