Residency waiver question - DavidHume - 12-17-2017
Is there a minimum amount of credits from study.com required to qualify for TESU's residency waiver reduction?

As far as we know, one course will suffice.

TESU didn't sign me up as a study.com student when I first registered. Despite the fact that I have transferred in 20+ classes in the mean time, they have required that I send in a transcript directly from study.com to make the change on my account. I filled out the form that study.com requires for this person, but have heard nothing. I am going to try to pay the waiver and graduation fees this week before TESU goes dark on the 22nd. Wish me luck!
Note: I am awaiting results from the Oct. term Federal Income Tax TECEP. I am registered for the Dec. Tax TECEP as a precaution. I also am registered for the Dec. Intermediate Tax II CSU CBE. I will have a second chance at that one, but I want to pass first time through. I am also through my first run through the tests for the Ed4Credit Money and Banking. I'm at 61% currently and am working through the pretty grueling process of upping that to 70%. Then is it one shot at the final for 50%. I've been aiming for Christmas, but quality needs to Trump speed.

I haven't heard that anyone has had a problem with switching/registering as a Study.com affiliate member. I do know that they don't do it automatically, even if you transfer courses over (they have nothing in their system to trigger this, I'm sure). So you do have to call to make the switch.

A couple people on this forum have mentioned that TESU has started requiring you send a transcript first to prove you've taken study.com courses before they switch you in the system. Back when I applied it was as easy as an email asking them to add it to my account. I don't even think my first evaluation had been completely finished. I know they definitely didn't have any transcripts showing study.com courses because I took a lot of other courses first. So I don't know if it's just one of those things where it depends on who you talk to. Worse case scenario is I would go ahead and ask and if anyone is running into a deadline go ahead and request the transcript just in case. Hopefully they'll only need the email request.
