I'm applying at TESC and they ask for original transcripts. Am I understanding correctly that I will send in originals now to apply and then need to order all new originals (because I will have added courses) at the time of graduation???

You have to send in transcripts from each source (unless they are things which are combined on an ACE transcript where you'd only send one). If you take more courses from those schools then you have to send in another transcript once the grades is in.
My completed "non-traditional" credits include 27 credits from CLEP, 30 credits from DSST, 6 credits from ALEKS, 19 credits from FEMA courses including PDS, 3 credits from NFA courses, 10 credits from ACE Workplace Training, 3 credits from a TESC TECEP exam, and 3 credits from a TESC PLA course.

If you add classes, then yes. If you add tests, then no. When you take tests there is a feature that allows you to select a school for your score report to be sent, and that is free to 1 school with each DSST or CLEP exam.

Thanks Cook! I knew about that test feature just TOTALLY forgot since I've never used it. I just knew I was missing something in the back of my head. Thank you!!

I wanted to add, if you forget to do this don't worry. You can wait until you've taken all the test with that company (CLEP or whatever) and then just pay for 1 transcript at the end ($20) and it will have all the passing scores.
