How long for TESC to receive transcripts?

[Elinor]

I know there's probably already a thread on this, but I couldn't find it using the search.

I sent my CLEP, DSST, and FEMA transcript request forms in about 2 weeks ago, I think. TESC has received my FEMA transcripts, but not the CLEPs or DSSTs. Is this normal? or should I re-send the forms? I can wait, but I was wondering what a typical receiving time is.

Oh, I sent the ECE transcript about a week ago, too.

Thanks!

FOREVER.. Just joking it takes about 5 to 6 weeks for them to receive them and eval them. So if you sent them 2 weeks ago I would give it another 4 weeks.

Is it better (more efficient) to send in all the transcripts together? I have a stack of transcript request forms and I didn't know if I should have them all sent to me and then I send them to TESC all together, or have them each sent directly to TESC.

If I had to do it all over again I would have all the transcripts sent to me and then send them over to them. I did that with the fema transcript and sent it to them overnight and had no issues with them receiving it. I think that part of the reason that the eval takes so long is because everyone has transcripts coming in from everywhere and they hold things up until they get the last transcript which makes sense. I would not want to review a student records like four or five times when i could just do it once.

hmm..interesting observation emichele20. that would maybe explain why they take forever :willynilly:

kindof on a tangent..
So how long does it take to recieve the CLEP or DSST scores if one inserts the college code before starting the test in comparison to not inserting the score paying an extra $20 and sending the transcript?? :confused:
..btw I am enrolled in TESC and trying to figure out the faster way to get credits evaluated.

That might make it faster, but my FEMA transcript arrived very quickly (like, 2-3 days) even though I didn't send it myself. My Excelsior transcript arrived in about a week, but I'm still waiting for my CLEP and DSSTs to show up. :p
