However, before you even begin this journey, you need to know about graded credits. Decide what you need to do, have an action plan...Maybe the person I know is an exception to this rule? I was inspired into my alt credit journey by someone who only had 2 graded courses (TESU) total (not 4.0) and was accepted at a (ABA) law school afterwards with a really good scholarship, they had an above average but not amazing LSAT score. The one difference might have been this person had A LOT of volunteer experience which the law school was very impressed with AND they had multicultural/global life experiences which attracted positive attention.
Having a TESU 4.0 internal gpa will NOT make the cut... You need to supplement those grades as most law schools look at information and grades based on the last 60 credits, some are the last 30 credits. Going the TESU route you're wanting may work, but you can speak with the son in regards to "changing" that to a BABA at UMPI, and take the last 30-60 credits there or graduate with a double degree (30 each degree) at the same time...
