Max Credit help for TESU

[davewill]

Don't forget that the BACS will be considered a second bachelor's at TESU and 24 of your credits will have to be earned after your first degree confers. Not sure exactly when you graduate, but careful.

Can you explain this a little more please?  My final semester starts Jan 13th to March 2nd and I should be done my classes by the 2nd week not sure if they confer immediately or if I have to wait until the end of the semester.

TESU has rules about earning a second bachelor's degree (see below). One of them is that you must have 24 new credits in the area of study. They define that as being earned after the most recent degree was conferred. So if you dive in and start earning the credits for your BACS right away, and your degree doesn't confer until April, you could have a problem.

Earning a Second or Successive Baccalaureate Degree

Students who have earned a baccalaureate degree from TESU or an accredited institution recognized under the Thomas Edison State University Transfer Credit Policy and wish to earn an additional baccalaureate degree must:

Complete a minimum of 24 credits including the required capstone for the degree. These credits must be in the area of study and/or core of the degree. These credits must be earned after the date the most recent degree, regardless of academic level, was conferred.
Additionally, students must complete all other degree requirements as listed in the current Thomas Edison State University Catalog.

I saw on a post that you need Cal ll & lll and Discrete math for the TESU BACS. Do those get waived because I will have my degree?

No, Calc II and III and Discrete Math are not part of general education section of the degree, so they will not be waived. You will need to take those somewhere.
