Unfortunately, the rep was mostly correct. While TESU does report the institution, original course code& name, and credits for each transferred course, the letter grade is not shown. There is a column for grades, but it's blank for all of my RA transfer credits. Grades are reported for TESU credits, and CR is shown for everything pass/fail at TESU/ACE/NCCRS/CLEP/DSST. The situation does not change with graduation. Here's a screenshot from the final copy of my official transcript TESU included with my diplomas last month:

A week before graduation, a massive mess erupted when TESU's graduation auditor realized that I was on a combination of programs not allowed under the current application of the award of degrees policy. TESU tried to sweep it under the rug and refused to communicate clearly about the issue, until I pointed out that a senior academic advisor made and approved the set of degrees and brought receipts.  
TESU ended up moving me to an older BSBA catalog year so I would have BSBA-CIS&GM instead of BS-CIS&GM. I thought going to previous catalog years was never allowed, but TESU made it happen to cover for their mistakes. I pointed out that a BSBA is still a BS degree, but apparently TESU doesn't see things that way for reasons they could not articulate.  
The degree names on my final transcript don't make complete sense to me - they don't fully align with the solution TESU came up with or my expectations of what I would receive.  
Instead of being a happy and celebratory time, my graduation was a chaotic and exasperating mess. More than a month later, I'm still quite mad about the whole ordeal.

Furthermore, after a TESU course has been completed and the transfer courses are added to the TESU transcript, the rep said that the transcripts will still not show grades for accepted RA transfer courses! (I failed to further clarify if, perhaps, the transferred courses' grades might show after one graduates with a TESU degree..?)

Lastly, I'm not 100% sure, but I think I understood that they were confirming my fear that the transcript will only show the TESU equivalency for transferred courses. Many of mine that were upper level and that would be of specific value to prospective employers with their original course titles have been equated to merely repetitive, "special topics in..."

I had high hopes for TESU transcripts serving this consolidation-for-employment-applications purpose, based on forum posts. Now, I'm now wondering if UMPI transcripts would show accepted transfers before completing their courses, as I'd really like to have my multiple-source classes on one transcript for prospective employers. Showing their original source, of course, and hopefully showing original class titles and the grades.
