Maybe you do, because you're making an awful lot of uninformed guesses and treating them like facts.

It's true that people like us don't mean much revenue for them, but that doesn't mean this policy change relates to that. If all they wanted was more revenue, then it doesn't make sense that they didn't just require 30 credits be from Charter Oak itself, rather than continue to allow it to come from transfer, including TECEP and UExcel.

Other reasons than revenue that might have led to this change include pushback from NEASC-CIHE, a change in Connecticut's legislative or regulatory environment, or some other reason that wouldn't occur to you, me, or anyone else who doesn't work for the institution.

Alright, you win. There are no testing centers outside of the US.

More accurate to say that if you're outside the U.S. it's worth checking to see whether there's one close by, but don't get your hopes up.

Ahhhhh the voice of reason!
