Inwe,

I can absolutely assure you that TESC allows people to test out of all 120 credits of a degree. There is no residency requirement, so you can either test out of, or transfer credits in, from other institutions.

However, you can only test out of all 120 credits of your degree IF there are appropriate exams available to meet all your degree requirements. Is it possible that your advisors might have been informing you that 10 of the required courses for the marketing degree (Eg, 30 credits worth) don't have a corresponding exam; and that, as a result, YOU PERSONALLY would only be able to test out of 90 of the 120 credits needed to obtain your marketing degree at TESC? Alternatively, perhaps the advisors are assuming you ARE going the military route?

I would certainly push this issue with TESC. It is a very important matter that needs to be cleared up for you ASAP.

Please keep us updated,
Snazzlefrag
