TESC - How much does transfer of previously earned credits cost? - TheCommuter - 01-25-2011

I am seriously considering enrolling in TESC's BSN completion program (RN-to-BSN) later this year. I am very new to the realm of distance education and have completed nearly 60 college credits at brick-and-mortar community colleges over the past 10 years. I would like to transfer all of these credits to TESC.

Unfortunately, I have also completed numerous credits at trade schools that lack regional accreditation. I attended two different trade schools for both my LVN/LPN diploma and my associate degree in nursing (RN). I am cognizant that I most likely will not be able to transfer these credits.

Here's my question: how much does TESC charge each student who wishes to transfer previously earned credits? Is it on a per credit basis, or is it a flat fee? Thanks in advance to anyone who can clear up my confusion.

Many colleges charge a transfer per credit fee, but TESC does not. Also, you should know that the RN-BSN allows you to take some grad classes in the program, so you are "double dipping" if you get your MSN, you'll already have credit waiting for you!
