RA credit and TECEP question
#1
I’m helping my son put together a degree plan. What does RA credit mean and do TECEP exams count toward the 30 credit requirement? I assume it means regionally accredited but can not find an official answer.

Thank you

Yes, RA would refer to Regionally Accredited.    TECEP exams should be RA credit per this thread:

Keep in mind that RA credit is separate from the residency credit requirement. TECEPs are RA credit but they do NOT count towards residency unless the student is in the military degree program.
