TESU 2nd Evaluation - natshar - 11-16-2018
I have 66 credits from one community college, 1 credit from a 2nd community college and 6 CLEP tests. I didn't want to pay the $20 transcript fee for CLEP so I only sent the two college transcripts. At the first college I earned an associates degree and and used CLEP to meet some of the requirements. As a result it notes the CLEP on my transcript but not my score.
The TESU evaluation came in awhile ago and as expected there was 2 colleges but no CLEP'S. However, a couple weeks I got an email saying they did another evaluation and added CLEP'S. I keep checking the website and the CLEP'S still do not show up in my end of the evaluation. Any help would be appreciated.
Also, I have not enrolled as a TESU student yet.

The CLEPs have to come from Collegeboard (the original source). You'll have to pony up the $$.

That's what I thought. Then why did TESU send me an additional email weeks after my first evaluation saying they evaluated my Cleps.

Did you perhaps take a CLEP and list TESU as your school? That triggers a free automatic sending of that one CLEP score. That also means you can go ahead and pay to send in your CLEP transcript as you can send any future scores for free, as long as you do it when you take it.

You are right. I did but I failed the clep. (got a 48) that's what happened. Good advice I'll pay the 20 now.
But the thing is I used up the two free evaluations right? So if I want more evaluations I have to enroll in TESU.

Yes, you need to enroll before any other evaluations or advice is provided. My recommendation is just to continue with getting your CLEPS and other ACE/NCCRS courses completed. Enroll in the Cornerstone whenever possible BEFORE the SOC101 course is required as a replacement for the Cornerstone as the Cornerstone will soon no longer be offered each term. That cornerstone will enroll you for the year to come...

Im was thinking of enrolling end of January/early February. I'm aiming of September graduation but if that doesn't work I can do December graduation with that plan. That would work right?
RE: TESU 2nd Evaluation - bjcheung77 - 11-16-2018
Yup. That's fine, you can enroll in the January term for the Cornerstone and finish it within a day. You need to apply for graduation before the deadline, however; you can still continue working on courses until at the very latest, a month before graduation. So, for example, if you're shooting for Grad in September, get everything done before the middle of August.

You never really know exactly what TESU will call an "evaluation". They might well ignore that CLEP score and still process another set of transcripts.
