I asked TESC why they hand out only general diplomas...

Geezer, you slay me...milelol:

Linda is exactly right, mine are like that too. The TESC person you spoke to is wrong. (gasp. shock.)

I will definitely follow up then hmmm!

PS. I filed for FAFSA! It says I MAY be eligible for $5,500 PELL. Crossing my fingers.

Did she even fill out he FAFSA? Money would not even be a problem if she filled out her FAFSA. All she would have to do is take 6 credits to use her financial aid.

Yeehaw! I sure did. Not sure what 6 credits you mean...as in 6 credits worth of classes at TESC. I'm pretty sure they don't allow FA to used toward testing out. And you guys better believe I found out the joy of FEMA! Woohoo.

You're going to have to take 6 credits in online or guided study courses in order to get financial aid and you'll probably only get a fourth of it. 12 credits will get you half of it because the $5550 is meant for a whole year of at least 24 credits. You could use the leftover financial aid to pay for tests, but you aren't going to have anything leftover because the tuition and fees will be more than your disbursement unless you take out a federal loan.

Hi san. I'm looking to take a full-time load and hoping I can finish in a few months. Even if it means having to take off from work. Thanks a lot.
