What's going on with my Academic Evaluation?? - studyandpass5 - 12-18-2018

Just had a mini-freak out; I just took a look at my academic evaluation through TESU and it says at the top "Exception: Credit overage GEE 1 sh, 121 sh required"
What?? What does this mean? Has anyone else run into this? Do I need 121 credits now instead of 120? I can always try attaching my evaluation if that would be helpful. 
I've also been emailing my academic adviser because she seems to be confused about the study.com residency waiver discount. That's still going on, right? Is it 3 classes you need to take in order for the discount to apply?

Probably a typo. Are you sure it says 121?
You probably have more credits than required in a certain category, so less is required in another.

Mine has this for example:
!! Exception 1sh under Ethics, 2sh over nat world Take 18sh

Do not panic and freak out as you mentioned. Copy/paste your evaluation. All that is indicating.. it is because the Cornerstone is required, you have a total of 121 credits required for the degree... Relax, get a drink, better yet, get me one too!

It is the cornerstone, as was mentioned previously.

As for the Study.com residency waiver discount, yes it is still active. You have to take at least 1 Study.com course and transfer it to TESU to qualify. You should also have listed Study.com affiliate on your TESU application. If not, you will need to contact TESU to get them to add the Study.com corporate affiliation to your account. It may take a few times to get it added properly.

To confirm your affiliate status you can click on your Profile link in OSS and look under the Student Status field. If it has been applied, it should show "CPPEN Corporate Choice" followed by "Enrolled" or "Applied" in that field. If it doesn't include the Corporate Choice bit, you are not flagged.

Thanks bjcheung77! I'm attaching my academic evaluation as a pdf. Hopefully you (and others) will be able to open it.

My Student Status field does not show CPPEN Corporate Choice, so I'm assuming that means I'm not affiliated. Is that something my academic adviser can add for me?
