Having those two notorized letters stating that I'm finished somehow makes it more real than just knowing that I had met all requirements. Now I've got it in writing and no one can take it away from me by changing the rules at the last minute or something. I'm a college grad!

Finishing up is a good feeling. Cool

Congratulations!

I'm a new student to TESC. Any advice?

Sure. Check out their catalog's listing of what each CLEP and/or Dantes is worth. Most CLEP's are 100 level classes, but you will need 27 upper level (200 level or higher) courses in your major. If it doesn't really matter what your major is, go for Liberal Studies. It's the most flexible. Then, assuming that you are a decent reader, definitely take Analyzing and Interpreting Lit CLEP. It's 6 easy upper level credits (it's inaccurately listed as a 100 level in their catalog--the only incorrectly listed test that I'm aware of).

Anyway, beyond that, not really. Study hard, check before you take a CLEP if you aren't *sure* that it's accepted, then be patient because they are notoriously slow listing your passes in your degree audit.
I'm an engineer. Go figure.
