I love seeing all the post about people de valuing the degrees from TESU, do they think they just enroll pay 2k and receive the degree. Are they not aware there is actual work involved in earning it. I'll admit I was a bit skeptical at first myself but I did some actual research as you can see in another one of my posts and this degree will be on an even playing field as someone getting there bachelors from Siena college. I'm sorry but the cost/time of TESU out weights the 4years and about 120k at Siena any day. For specialized degrees if your that worried about TESU degrees being devalued then do what I am doing, I'm taking about a bunch of my AoS stuff at a Traditional B&M school getting more "acceptable" transfer credits. Plus if an employer asks for a GPA I will give them my CC transcripts along with the complete TESU one so they can see all them A's lol. By the way Sdotmeek, an employer is going to look up your school assuming they never heard of it, see that is regionally accredited and move on. They are not going to be like oh that school ewww. Or see that its accepts a ton of Alternative Style credits. Also if you look at some of the schools you are talking about many of those accept CLEP and ACE also. They just usually have that 30credit residency requirement where you need to take 10 courses or 1 years worth of credits from them. SUNY Albany is a highly accepted school where I am from and during my planning for the original plan I had planned for them to take 90/120 credits from a mix of CLEP/CC/ and ACE so its usually that small 30credits where you think a degree is more valued then TESU.
Side Note: If you get an associates from TESU there is ZERO guarantee you will get 60 credits transferred in to your BA at Rutgers, Montclair State etc.
Please reference this thread below on the test I did with hiring managers.
