The residency waiver will would take care of the residency requirements, but I still have to meet the RA requirements. So, I might as well get them by taking the courses at TESU and not have to pay the waiver fee. No way I know of getting RA credits except at a college, doesn't make sense to me to go to another CC to get them. The TESU online courses would probably be easier anyway.
I was just trying to finish the degree with SDC. I understand that used to be possible at TESU before they changed the residency rules or the RA rules. Oh well, 4 courses is not that bad.
Thanks for the info.
TECEPs can be used to meet the RA credits needed, but not residency. If that doesn't work for you, then it makes sense to do a 12 (or 15) credit term. Remember that you can use EPacks to self-pace the courses (besides corner/capstone), and can extend a class (like the capstone) if the workload gets to be too much. I don't suppose you're a reservist or have an active duty spouse? If so, you could access military tuition and use TECEPs to meet residency.
