completely testing out at TESC, what is the least expensive way to graduate

[clep3705]

This discussion started in another thread. To prevent thread hijacking, here is a new post.

The question is what is the least expensive way to graduate from TESC when the student has 117 transfer and test credits. The only course needed at TESC is the LIB-495 Liberal Arts Capstone. By taking a single (or more? how many?) TECEP and completing the capstone within 6 months, could the pay per credit plan be done instead of the enrolled options plan? If this is so, what if the student starts late and takes longer than 6 months? Take another TECEP and pay $75? What if the TECEP is attempted but not passed?

Now for a different question regarding a student admitted for liberal studies but wants to change majors. Suppose the student passes a history TECEP which would then make the student eligible for a B.A. in history instead of liberal studies. Could the major be changed prior to the completion of the capstone course?

The application to TESC was submitted yesterday. Advice is urgently needed. Transcripts have been ordered. The next capstone starts in 5 weeks. How quickly does TESC process new students?
