Absolute cheapest way to "test out" and earn credits?

Hello Again,

Regarding you PG experience. Concerning the application process, I have a few questions.

1. Once you applied, how long until you received approval?
2. Do you need to have a designated school. Would I have to sign up for TESC...pay them...then hope the grant comes through? Money unfortunately is an issue at the moment.
3. I'm an adult...will that work in my favor?

I hadn't even though of a PG until I read a post of yours. Now that money is being taken away Pell Grants by the Gov't, I figure there's no time like the present.


Thank you again,

excellent post from burb. I'll add that you could apply for financial aid and see if you qualify for a pell grant (not loan- the grant is a gift). If so, it's about $5500. At TESC, they apply your grant in quartly payments (5500 divided by 4) and any overage is given back to you in cash. This is how I paid for most of my education.
