Thomas Edison State University suspended indefinitely Shmoop courses - mvk - 05-04-2018
Just got this email .
I am contacting you today to let you know that the acceptance of Shmoop courses as transfer credit at Thomas Edison State University has been indefinitely suspended pending further review.
We do not expect this change to affect you as we have no indication that you have taken or are planning to take Shmoop courses.
If you have any questions about how this policy change may affect your program of study, please contact the Office of Admissions and Enrollment Services at (609) 777-5680 or enrolled@tesu.edu.
Thank you,

Additional Shmoop courses documented as planned on your academic evaluation will also be honored but only if they were approved by an advisor prior to May 2, 2018. In order to have those approved transfer courses honored, we must receive your official ACE transcript with all approved courses listed as complete to Thomas Edison State University by May 30, 2018.

Well, there goes the core of my planned BA in English. Crap. I wonder why, and if they will ever bring it back? I'm going to need core English credits from another source now. This will significantly up the cost of my planned degree. Oh how I wish I could have dug deep and taken all my Shmoop course already, and could now quick transfer them in... I had my degree evaluation completely approved.

If you discussed the Shmoop courses with an advisor before May 2nd, you can probably still do them, if you send an ACE transcript with them before May 30th.
