Hey all! When I get to the Cornerstone and Capstone courses at TESU, am I able to use grants through Financial Aid to pay for these, or will they purely be out of pocket? I’m just trying to make sure that I am prepared in advance.

Hey BrighterFuture88!
Have you applied yet? When I applied for aid, both courses would be eligible for it, yes. You just need to make sure you enroll in at least 6 credits for the same semester.
I hope that helps!

I have not applied yet but will soon. That means since I would be taking both around the same time, it would count. Perfect. Thank you for that information!

Taking both at the same time is what I was planning to do as well. I'm trying to push for 100 credits by December. At around 70 credits now.
Be nice to get things locked up before they think about changing the rules again.

Yep! That is exactly why I am pushing hard to knock out as many credits as possible.
