TESU - Cheapest way to "re-enroll" before July 1

So I DIDN'T think that it was hard? How could I have been wrong about that?? I guess you know me better than I know myself.

Geez, if you would have read my post, I was talking in general. Giving another point of view.
" it depends on the student but most have felt otherwise."

I guess it was the "Nope" that threw me off.

Just in case the OP is interested, I took a bunch of management & HR courses at a 4-yr university, and the rest as exams, and 5 TECEP's, and PR was by far the hardest thing I took. It just was not anything I was familiar with, and it didn't line up with anything I had studied. I read the book, studied the IC cards, and it still just was not easy FOR ME. Obviously YMMV, but I spent more time studying for this exam than all the other CLEP/DSST/TECEP's put together, and it was my lowest scoring exam.

Thanks all for your advice. One last question, what happens if I enroll for a TECEP in my last month as an enrolled student (July) and take it sometime before the end of the term (say in Sept), but I don't pass it? Am I unenrolled at that point, or do I stay enrolled?

Out of curiosity (and because I'm trying to understand how enrollment works at TESU).... You have 6 months after applying to officially enroll, right? So, if you apply in July & take your first TECEP in December (to activate your enrollment), then do you have another year from *December* to take your next TECEP? In other words, can you lock in your degree plan/catalog & get a full 18 months out of that first year by applying - then waiting 6 months to enroll (by taking the first TECEP) - then waiting another 12 months to maintain enrollment (by taking another TECEP)? I hope I'm making sense.... Thanks for any clarification!

Silly_ME, you're correct! Below is something I PM a fellow member of the board. Since you asked, I've pasted the info below.
For TESU, A TECEP is considered a course you take during the term you've enrolled, if you fail a course, you are still enrolled.
TESU treats it the same way. But, don't plan on failing... go for the easiest ones that you need the credits for anyway!

Secret: TECEPs, even if you fail the exam, you are enrolled! Not many people know that, they think they need to pass, but they don't.
It's just like paying an extension fee, but if you pass, you get credit for the course. Take the easiest ones... I'll tell you WHEN it's time.
Work on the FREE courses/ALEKS ones to get you started - Read/Review my guide and the wiki, while following the spreadsheet.
