Avoid this "program".
The Military Degree Completion Program punishes soldiers! Strange, but TESC requires 30 of the hours with MDCP be in house. I was stuck with this, because I enrolled while in Iraq. Big mistake, after finally getting to speak with the seemingly only veteran at TESC, I was able to drop the MDCP, and 6 semester hours later (CLEP and DSST), finish my degree with 100 % transfer credit. I have no TESC courses!
Any way, TESC has no in house requirement for civilians! They still honor all your military evaluations etc, but as long as you don't pay for the MDCP, you won't get stuck with the 30 hours. It cost me an additional $1500, because I could have finished within a year of enrolling in 07, after dropping MDCP, 6 months later I had a degree.
Good luck, (I gave my GI Bill to my son)
