[TESU] Academic Evaluation turn-around time

And, I think you should be prepared for your catalog to change. Mine certainly did when I came back. But if you end up with 2014, then good for you!

Mine did too -- after my TECEP started and I finally got them to change me to enrolled status.

Related question, TESU shows that they received my transcript from a university I attended but I haven't sent the ACE transcript yet. I was holding off on the ACE until I finished up more classes. I also need to see how TESU evaluates a few of the courses I took at the local University before I know what I need to finish up. Will they evaluate the transcript they've already received or will they wait until I send ACE? Worst case I just send ACE now and again later but I was trying to avoid an extra fee.

They'll evaluate what they already have.

They say on the website 25 business days, and I have found that to be the case the last couple of times they updated my eval. EXACTLY 25 business days. It's like they COULD do it in 1 day, but they put your file in the "25th business day from today" pile, and process it then. Not sure what that's all about.

You say that you're an applicant with a 2014 catalog, but I don't think that's possible. Are you saying you're still that, or you were that previously? Because you can't stay in applicant status forever, you have to enroll within a year by either taking a course or TECEP. If you haven't done that, then I don't think you'll still be on the 2014 catalog when they update your file. As a matter of fact, I'm not sure they will update your file; I would think that they would make you reapply and you'll be under the current 2016/17 catalog when that happens. I could be wrong, but I don't think I am.

Hey it's possible, i'm still in the 2014 catalog year as well. You keep renewing before the one year point comes around.

I assume you keep taking a TECEP for enrollment purposes? I should have done that a year ago instead of this year, so many changes taking place at TESU, kind of getting me frustrated. Onward I tread! Until I get that degree! (Swings out credit card).

If you get your ACE and SL credits posted to the eval without the catalog changing, thank your favorite deity and lucky stars.

If you were a true new applicant, you would not see any eval at all until 5 or 6 weeks after they receive transcripts. I suspect TESU hasn't got around to manually updating your last eval from 2014 and giving you the 2016 or 2017 catalog because they are super slow. Registering for a course and having it show up on your old eval is an automatic process that should not be seen as a sign of good news.

I forgot to update this thread. After I was enrolled and even after my evaluation update, I was still kept on the 2014 catalog. I'm sure it's because I e-mailed the Bursar department and asked if I could be kept on there.
