Is there any way I can find out what a course will transfer in as before I take it?

I mean for colleges. Is there any way I can ask them to pre-evaluate a class?

Yes, you can email advising and ask what X class at Y school would come in as. They may or may not be very helpful, depending on who you email. They may ask for a syllabus or a course description.

Does failing a TECEP show up on a transcript? Or affect GPA?

No, TESU does not show when you've failed a TECEP. They used to, but your transcript no longer reflects TECEPs that were attempted and failed. TECEPs are pass/fail and do not have any effect on your GPA no matter whether you pass or fail.

Back in 2016, I had a few that I either registered for but didn't take, or took and failed - all showed up as W's, which did not hurt my GPA.

Now, they don't even show up on your transcript at all, unless you pass.

So no downside to taking a TECEP except for money correct? And when I sign up I can take it any time during the term, and can only take it once ever right?

You can take it at any time during the registered term and you can retake it once in a different term.

Study.com is in the process of sending all courses to TESU that were renewed, and TESU should be confirming them, hopefully soon (although you never know).  So hopefully we will know more about what these courses will be accepted as going forward.  Chances are, nothing will change and this will become a distant memory.  Fingers crossed!

Has there been any update on this?
