TESU Evaluation/Planning Assistance - fcnew52 - 01-17-2017
Thanks guys for all the info!
I applied for the Study.com scholarship but I haven't received a reply so I will just assume that I did not get approved for it. No biggie.
I have another question however.
I applied at TESU last year for a BA in Liberal Studies and got accepted on June 14th 2016.
I am aware that I am supposed to enroll within 12 months of being accepted so I have until June 14th of this year to sign up for a class in order to begin my enrollment.
However, my plan was to get all my leftover credits through testing out before officially enrolling at TESU. I just don't know if I will be able to finish all of my credits before that date.
1. What is required to officially enroll at TESU? I've been reading previous threads and from what I understand,
I could technically sign up for a TECEP and that would give me time before I have to sign up for a course?
2. If so, when signing up for the TECEP, would I have to pay the residency waiver fee of $2000? Or is that only required once I sign up for a course?
Thanks!

Yes, registering for any course, including a TECEP will switch you to enrolled status. You're going to want to be enrolled no later than the June term, so your last chance to sign up would be mid-May. I always recommend doing is sooner rather than later. After that, your enrollment will expire in a year if you don't take another course or TECEP, or graduate, within that time. It's not necessary to take any actual TESU courses to maintain enrollment.
The residency waiver isn't due until it's time to apply for graduation.

Hi guys! Thanks again for all the info!
It looks like I got approved for the Study.com Scholarship for 3 months so I have decided to go all in on Study.com! However, I only recently learned of Study.com so I have several questions I hope someone can help me with.
1.I am aware that I have to take and pass the Finance 102 course before I take any other courses. Am I wrong on that information?
Would it be possible to take other courses and their final exams before I take FIN102?
2.Also, I was going to take the Intro Sociology CLEP this Thursday, but since I have access to Study.com now, I may just use that to satisfy my Diversity requirement. Once I pass an exam like Intro Sociology for example, would I just transfer the credits through the ACE website?
Thanks so much!

You have to take Personal Finance first, no way around that. Luckily it's easy, so just get through it. And then, yes, once you're done, you request it to be added to your ACE transcript.
I did a degree plan for you previously, and I'm guessing that your Chicano Lit course will satisfy your diversity requirement. If you haven't gotten an eval yet, you should do that to see. Since you have so many credits under your belt, it would be really helpful to see where everything falls.
Also, with Study.com, I would do as many of the courses as UL as possible. That's really all you have left to complete, and this is the easiest way to get those. Research Methods in Psychology, Social Psychology, Abnormal Psychology, History of the Vietnam War, Microbiology, Business Communication, Organizational Behavior, Business Ethics - all come in as UL at TESU, and will fulfill your AOS UL credits that you need. Pick any 5 and you've got those UL courses for free.

Thank you dfrecore!
Yes, I already have my evaluation and I posted it earlier in this thread. Unfortunately, the Chicano Literature course is already being used up as one of my non-UL Liberal Studies courses, so I don't know if I could have it moved towards the Diversity requirement?
Thanks!

Yes, you could request that. It should be an easy switch.
