TESU Multiple Degrees Policy
#1
So I already have an RA degree from B&M State U. Would I be able to do two bachelors at TESU if I already have one? For ex BA and BSBA. I know they changed their policies. I am not sure I'll actually complete two degrees but more just curious. I am an enrolled TESU student and have two degrees on my plan currently. But I have not sent my University transcripts over which show I completed a Bachelors degree. Once I do that I'm wondering what would happen and what will be allowed.
I also already have three associates degrees. None from TESU. How many associate degrees can I do at TESU? I have zero associates on my plan currently but if I'm allowed to add some and its no extra money or cost I figure why not for the fun of it. But I just don't know if this is allowed either.
Also at least one and I think maybe two of the udnergrad certs I either already have done or are one course away. If I'm getting them in tandem with a degree how much of the cert courses have to be from TESU? Heard mixed things on that as well.
Right now I'm slowly pursuig TESU as a side project. But in the next few months I might be able to dedicate more time on it. It would just be helpful if I knew what I'd be able to work towards excactly.
I just have heard mixed answers on these things.

As far as we can tell, TESU's current policies are 2 TESU Bachelor's degrees, 2 TESU Associate degrees, and however many certificates you want (so long as they don't overlap with the degrees). Even if you have a previous degree (or two).

That's correct, you can take two associates, two bachelors at TESU and which ever certs that interest you. The only difference is, you can take certs that overlap the degrees as well. For instance, you want a BALS with Psych minor, you get the Psych Cert added without any extra cost due to the same requirements.

For the BSBA CIS AOS, you can get the CIS Cert added... BACS, you get the CS Cert added. There are only a handful of certs that have different requirements than the BSBA AOS or BALS concentration, those are the ones you can't get, it'll be too costly to take a course elsewhere to transfer them in. It's your call...

I don't think you can get the BALS Psych and Psych cert. I'm pretty sure someone here wanted a slightly overlapping certificate and TESU wouldn't let them add it because they were already going for the degree.

Unless they made some changes to the requirements recently, that's how I told Supermind since 2019... He didn't have to do any extra work to get the ASNSM Math and Psych Cert when he went for the BALS-Psych. I don't think TESU made any changes to the requirements for the certs, so, the policies should remain identical to back then...

Agreed - I think you can get a Cert OR a concentration, but not both.  They're essentially the same thing (same exact courses for most).

If someone graduates from the cert first, they probably aren't barred from graduating later from the concentration, right?

What is your goal? Are these degrees for personal fulfillment or career related? What degrees are you looking to complete?

Probably. But I think it'd be more hassle than it's worth. You'd probably have to reapply again, at the very least.

They probably are - because they'll need 24 new credits in the major.  TESU may balk at you just redoing the same credits over again to meet that requirement, when they are the exact same credits.

Besides, why would anyone want to do this?
