Confused about the change in TESU

[saraholson]

the Accuplacer is a test that almost all community colleges require new students to take. it's to see if she has to take remedial classes in english, math or science. you can google it - there are study guides for it online and in book form.

Kids who have taken standardized tests like ACT and SAT don't have to take Accuplacer, normally. usually colleges let you submit those test scores instead of taking accuplacer.

Maybe you should apply to Charter Oak instead. It seems like TESU is making a lot of changes that are less friendly to non-traditional students like the ones in this forum. With all the new stuff happening, i am glad i am almost done. if i were only just starting out, i would choose a different school. it almost seems like TESU is trying to push us away

My whole family lives in Connecticut. I see the rates are a little less. What are your thoughts on WGU? I need the least expensive and fastest way to have her get a degree and my son. Does Charter oak accept the 2 English’s that don’t require the writing? Tia

WGU will still make her take a placement test. they have their own version of it. And they also accept fewer ACE credits overall. I don't think that is going to be the best bet.
To find out about the English, i would post a new thread here: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Forum-E...Discussion
and tell people exactly what english classes they are, and see if anyone knows what they transfer in as, to charter oak. title it something like 'Question for Charter Oak - English' so people know what you are asking about. there are a lot of knowledgeable people who can help on this forum
