TESU received my ACE transcript for this one course on April 25 according to the email I received which has been almost a whole month. I have read usually 20-25 days so I'm wondering if I should email them and ask what the deal is or continue to wait it out. There is no rush, I just hope they haven't forgot about me.
In the meantime I learned that I don't particularly need to meet the 24 hour residency requirement for the Military Degree plan as I can just pay the residency waiver according to the bursar. This is great news as I will now focus on testing out and trying to finish by August for the December graduation. Getting this Stategic Management class behind me will be a big lift off my shoulders so I'm looking forward to pressing on and having the first webinar tonight.

I've found lately that TESU has been running even more behind than usual (ie TECEPs completed and passed according to my Moodle acct still listed as pending & not applied to my academic plan after 2 weeks). So my feeling is that it is completely acceptable to email politely and ask for an update/confirmation that the process is moving along as needed.
Eta, what jsd said is correct. So there is no right answer as to next step, but patience is always a good idea

Webinar, I'm doing that tonight as well... haha, If my PC/Laptop is on, I hope to finish all 3 webinars and submit these exams right away.
I'll be happy with 90% or higher just in case they need a GPA requirement outside of TESU when transferring them in.

Really?? That's amazing news! ... who did you ask? I need to send an email to that effect too, I've been working on my residency for what seems to be FOREVER and would be thrilled to be able to simply pay and save time ... gosh I wonder if they'll let me too
As far as waiting to hear about ACE credit, I'm still waiting and they got mine on 04/20, I'm sure it'll be any day now you'll hear

hilarious It's a good option!
As per the TESU Webpage: Thomas Edison State University | Per Credit Tuition Plan
Students will be able to request a change to their enrollment plan, Comprehensive Tuition Plan, or Per Credit Tuition Plan, within ninety days from the start of their current year of service. The written requests must be sent to bursar@tesu.edu. Once received the Bursar's Office will change the enrollment plan and recalculate any tuition and fees if necessary.

Yeah, even though they allow you to have a webinar a week, I pre-registered for the next one and have Donna Evans send me the links already.

How many are there? This sounds like a hard cutoff for making it in by July 1. Some have said the course could be completed in as few as 3 weeks, but that's not true if there are more than 3 webinars.. if there are 6 or more, it's already too late to start, unless the first one is "waiting" for you if you start mid-week.
