TESC Application and Enrollment Question

[Nightmoves5]

Hi folks,

I have a burning question on TESC enrollment: I gained admission on 10/26/2015 and just registered for my first TECEP in April 2016 to enroll...am I still able to enroll under the per-credit option using TECEP or has my 6-month enrollment time window already closed? I was hoping that TESC calculates 6 months to the day of admission and not the term.

Another question: Where on OSS does one pay for the TECEP? The only options for payment by credit card I found were for the comprehensive and enrolled plans.

Thanks in advance for any input.

When you registered for the TECEP, you should have been prompted for payment right then.

That's what i thought too, but there was no prompt.

You might want to go back into OSS to check your registrations status. Typically for TECEPs you pay when you register. It used to be you weren't considered registered until you paid for the TECEP. If you register for a TECEP in the April term then your enrollment should take affect 10 days into the April semester. I think in OSS there is a way to check your current student status and expiration date, maybe under profile.

Thanks for the input Swalke, checked on OSS but unfortunately it doesn't state till when my application is valid.

Under 'Account Summary' OSS shows I registered for the TECEP and owe $111, but no payment link or such. Hence my confusion...

[swalke321]

I usually pay for the TECEP in the registration menu during the registration process. You might want to check with TESU, they might be able to help. I think their registration process is confusing. Just make sure you aren't paying more then the $111 TECEP fee.

Will do, thanks!

Ok so I went back into OSS, dropped the course and then re-registered and this time the payment option appeared!

That takes care of the smaller problem but still leaves the question if I'm even still able to enroll up for debate.

All input is truly appreciated...

Yeah I got dropped from the first course I ever signed up for because I couldn't find a link to pay after skipping over that step during registration. I still don't know how you pay if you skip that step.

I'm really confused now. I've applied and registered for and paid for 4 TECEPS, starting at the beginning of February but haven't taken the exams yet. When I log into TESU and go to Student id, it says I'm still just an applicant. I thought maybe I'd automatically enroll after I'd taken my first exam but on reading this, it seems I assumed wrong. I've no idea when or how I'll be enrolled now!
