Thomas Edison State University is a regionally accredited state university. Regional accreditation is the "gold standard" for college accreditation in the United States and RA degrees should be recognized pretty much anywhere in the world.

So yes, if you have a degree from TESU it should be accepted for proof of academic/education credentials for express entry purposes.

Double check with your school, institutions, etc. You never know what weird rule is going to pop up. I remember someone who got a degree several years ago but couldn't get a visa to work abroad because his degree was seen as a distance degree, even though it was accredited. I can't remember if it was WGU or Capella. The rules may be different now.

If so, that's a really bad situation. I don't wanna 
be on the hook. Hmm, should ask about that the TESU? What can i do for that? I feel bad now. I really want that degree and want to use it.

Pretty sure you're fine.

But none of us are Canadian immigration officials. You should ask their immigration services what you need.

I think it would probably be fine, but you could check with the Ministry of Education if you plan on pursuing higher education in Canada or getting a visa or whatever. TESU probably isn't going to know other policies. Don't be discouraged. My point was just to think through to the end goal.
