TESC Lowers FEMA Credits Accepted to 25
#11
Thanks! I had not thought of that one. I am driving to NJ on Monday to take Anthropology, so I can do another DSST cold if I have the nerve.

If I were you, I would take

Well. . . now that I took another DSST exam (Prin. of Supervision) TESC tells me that they were mistaken about the FEMA credits!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:mad:

That mistake cost me $145! I can only use that exam as a free elective. What a waste of time and money.

OMG.
Ya know...that school just gets under my skin. I guess all a person can say is "typical TESC advising" for that blunder.

that stinks! I'm sorry that happened. I hate it when I get poor customer service, especially from schools when time & money are always at stake.

Brain,

When did you get the info they will take more than 25 FEMA credits? When they sent me the approved course list (last month) I posted here they also told me 25 FEMA credit max.

On another note how was that Prin of Supervision you took?

I emailed them to let them know my dissatisfaction at what had happened, and they blamed me for "rushing out" to take the DSS.

They sent me an unsolicited message that said that they had changed the FEMA policy from 27 to 25. I cram to take a DSST to replace the lost credits, only to find out that they were wrong! Now they have the nerve to say that this is MY fault!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Stay away from TESC

When they said they were wrong about the limit for FEMA credits being 25 did they say what is the correct limit?
