Planning my daughter's final stretch for a BA at TESU. She's already enrolled and has completed a TECEP.
1) Suppose we pay the residency fee now, before July. I understand she only has 1 year to complete courses before having to pay the fee again. But I'm wondering exactly what she needs to do before next July. Does she have to have all her coursework done AND have formally graduated? I remember when I graduated through them it took a few months after the courses were complete.
2) Here are the final credits she needs:
* 1 TECEP registered for July (easy)
* SOS-110 registered for July - 2 months (will be easy for her; she's a good writer)
* 2 sophia courses for 6 random electives- easy, can do in less than a month consecutive with the other courses (July)
* 1 UExcel test needed. She's ready to take it but there are no test centers currently open. I hope they will be before next year..
* Capstone - 3 months. Can't do it consecutively as she's also working and has limited study time.
Barring any unforeseen issues, she can do this easily by the end of 2020. It's the other things (transcripts taking several weeks to arrive, test centers not open, test or course dates not available, graduation prep through the school takes months) that I'm concerned about.
Would you take the chance and pay the RW before the price (potentially) goes up July 1?
