After you apply it takes SEVERAL weeks for TESC to process you, receive and evaulate what transcripts you have, and set you up with an academic evaluation.
The sooner you pay the nominal application fee the sooner you'll know exactly where you stand instead of relying solely on this board.
Send in the transcripts, get evaluated and then you'll know. At that point you don't have to enroll and you can take any CLEPS or DANTES, etc that you MAY need and have them sent to TESC. When yiu have met the degree requirements as outlined by a TESC advisor, then you can enroll and graduate.
CAUTION: There's been unclarified speculatin that you MAY need to take one course through TESC in order to graduate there. I never had to worry about that as I took several courses there, but you may want to call them and ask.
I second this. Study for and take your DANTES exam while you wait for TESC to process your application and transcripts. Then, when you take your exam, have it designated to be sent to TESC on the spot. Even if you're transcripts were not yet evaluated, it will be placed into the queue for evaluation and will be fine.
TESC *should* evaluate your credit for the best possible outcome. But, always double check how they have done it to see if there isn't a better utility possible. In any event, you're almost done! Congrats!
