comprehensive tuition = graduate credits? - creditmonsoon - 12-14-2016

As far as I understand you get around 36 credits per year if you enroll in the comprehensive tuition plan with TESC. I only have a couple of credits to transfer into TESC to receive my bachelor's degree, so can I use the 36 credits, or whatever, to earn graduate level credits by taking graduate courses? That's my understanding of it, but I'm probably dead wrong lol thank you

If this is the case then maybe I should signup ...

The Comprehensive Plan is for undergrad students only.

The only price listed on the graduate tuition page is per credit (in-state vs out-of-state)

If that's the case then I might have to register for the comprehensive plan to make the jan1st deadline even though I don't need it. I haven't taken any TESC courses and I'm right around 120 credits. If I'm left in this worst case scenario what do you think I should do with the 36 free credits after I finish my bachelor's? I never wanted a 2nd bachelor, but I don't want to waste free credits, so I'm not sure what I would do. maybe take some teceps :p

About $7,000 to $10,000 is a lot of money to pay for some credits you don't need.

it'd be more like 6-something, if that's any better. I live in NJ

I'm not sure what the point would be? I certainly wouldn't spend $6,000 for credits I didn't need. That money could be better spend on a graduate degree later on, or to pay for your capstone, or whatever.

So I guess the question is, why would you sign up and pay $6000+ for the comprehensive plan??

I'll just say it...... All this money to avoid a TECEP?

Yeah but it takes time to study for a tecep and i reqlly want to meet the jan1st deadline lol. I think the easiest one is the medical terminology tecep for 1cr. I actually tried signing up for it but I didnt see any way to. I emailed them about it.
