Do universities and employers discriminate against people with an online degree?
#3
This is an interesting question. You're asking a group of people who do not/have not attended the school you're targeting- in another country- if we can predict how their adcom will evaluate your degree. No one can do that- so that's the wrong question.

Your degree from TESU will contain exactly what you fill it with- so if you take classes or tests, it's up to you. I often read people's questions who ask about not having a TESU GPA. The only reason you'd not have a TESU GPA is if you don't take classes there- I took classes there, I have a GPA. In other words, you're in the driver's seat. You can take your classes butt-in-seat if you want (locally) and transfer them in- if you complete your degree using online classes, that's also your decision.

TESU is a regionally accredited state college, non-for-profit, and 100% legit. There is absolutely nothing shady about the college. That said, getting into a competitive graduate program will require a lot of preliminary work on your part- including researching any prerequisites the college has, and making a plan to check those boxes.

Can you get into grad school? Of course. Can you get into THAT grad school? Who knows.
