I am considering working towards a CS degree at TESU and am wondering if the CS courses first discussed back in April from Study.com are still being accepted at TESU or not?  It seems like the threads related to this went dark with no updates.  Does anyone have any recent information?

Thanks!

Welcome to the forum!

There was some confusion when the Study.com courses were about to expire though all those courses have been renewed. Everything should be ok now. 

To keep track of upcoming Study.com changes, check out this page here.

The good news is a computer science degree is now easier to get as the computer architecture course has an easier assignment, and Sophia just added Calculus which should transfer to TESU.

The hardest thing is taking the first step, so if you haven't already, I challenge you to sign up for free to Sophia and commit just 10 minutes to study one lesson of the course of your choice. (doesn't matter what it is)

Then make a spreadsheet plan for your degree and start knocking out courses.

Thank you so much LevelUP!  Looking forward to getting started.  I am generally going back and forth between WGU and TESU.  I will get more credits transferred via TESU but I like the general format of classes at WGU.

You are better off creating that spreadsheet for TESU and WGU, compare the courses required, and complete the courses that can be transferred to both.  If you prefer TESU, obviously complete the required courses, but just in case "life happens" or "changes to catalog" that become unfavorable for TESU, you'll have no need to worry when you want to switch to WGU as X courses will go over, up to 90 credits or 75% of the degree.  The spreadsheet is your tool for reference and tracking purposes to BOTH institutions...
