I agree with dfrecore there are other options.
What I was saying is that doing 16 credits at Tesu to avoid the wavier (especially when you have to do 9 already) seems like a better option financially than paying the wavier, especially with pell grant.
Doing 16 credits in one term is a better value since tesu flat rate 10+ credits is the same amount no matter how many credits. It is also a faster option because you'd be done in just one term at tesu. But obviously doing 16 credits at once may or may not work for you.
I agree that you might want to look at other schools. Consider your values as well. What you value most. Speed? Cost? Something else?
