23-24 TESU catalog is here - jch - 07-03-2023
The TESU 2023-2024 catalog is now online. Any notable changes? I haven't seen any yet.

I know this was already mentioned. But might be good to have it on this thread too. There is the change about residency requirement from 16 credits to 15 credits.

I think you can get two BA (or any two bachelors of the same type) with two concentrations each now...so total 4 concentrations of BA if you want or the same type of degree(or BS or BSBA). I cannot find anywhere that restrict the second bachelor or mention if you get one bachelor of on type you cannot get another of the same variety.
Can somebody confirm?
Also now is very clear which people of 16 years can come in (and limitations on first semester). I do not know if it was before but I have the impression that was worded differently.

That's a new direction for TESU.
yes, There are new age guidelines on undergraduate admissions. Still need to have completed high school. But Age waiver was changed from 18-20 to 16-20, and limited to 9 credits in that first semester: All students between 16 and 20 years of age will be limited to 9 credits in their first semester.
and looks like the accuplacer is no longer needed for those in age waiver category. and number of "credits" needed for age waiver was lowered as well.

You'd have to give an example of the 4 concentrations for me to understand what you're talking about.
And in the last few years, the rule has been 18yo, and you have to get a waiver. Now, it's 16 and a HS graduate, which is a much better option. There is the limitation of 9cr in your first semester, so you could not do the single 15cr term to save money in that way if you're under 20.

This is in the Award of Degrees Policy.

Hi @dfrecore the example is you can get a BA in Psychology and Sociology as major and later another BA in English and History. I think this is important in case somebody gets a BA in Liberal Studies (to get a degree quickly) and later need for work or whatever a BACS. Since both are BA now is possible.... I think, not sure still.
I have the impression that before you could only get a BA and if you wanted a second bachelor has to be a BS or a BSBA. Rephrased you could not get two bachelors of the same type (BS,BA,BSBA).

You might be able to skirt it by signing up for a TECEP, then doing the 15cr term later, although you might have to actually pass the TECEP.
