TECEP / TESC tests + courses while living in China....?

[dfrecore]

Well, internet proctoring is one of the main ways to get your credits on this forum. And I imagine that you might be able to get some online books to study for exams, but they might not be the exact books your course recommends.

The good news is that it looks like there may be Pearson VUE testing centers in China. I'm not sure if there's one near you, but you may want to check. If so, you can take UExcel (Excelsior) exams, they have a lot of them. You may also be able to make arrangements with TESC to take exams there as well. It wouldn't hurt to check with Saylor. The cheaper colleges may let you as well: UofArkansas Self-Paced, CSU-Pueblo IS, UofIdaho IS, BYU IS and LSU Distance Learning.

I would check to see if a Pearson VUE is near you, and then check with all of the above to see if they would let you take your exams there, or if not, where they recommend you take them if you're out of country for a while. There have to be places in China where the internet is available (universities, Starbucks!!), where you might be able to log in and do your courses.

Then, post your info here (courses you've taken as well as institutions you may be able to use to take exams), and we can come up a plan for you to finish your degree. We'll just have to be a little more creative! It's a gauntlet you've just thrown down!

There will be others who have more ideas than me, so see what they come up with. Lots of creative people on this forum...
