TESC Newbie / Credit Questions

[mov]

I learned lot through this forum last few days and now i am ready to pursue my BSBA in Finance through TESC i have few question that someone can answer for me

1.About me i completed my High School from India (I am US Citizen now living in US for last 12 Yrs) i called TESC last week and told the person who spoke to me about this he said i wont need any proof that i completed high school and they will take my word for it it sounded weird to me but is TESC flexible in accepting students without showing a valid High School education Requirement like GED or Evaluation from a agency for foreign High school graduates like me ?

2. Researching through this forum i came across Straighterline , CLEP , Saylor etc third party Institute where i can earn credit i am bit confused how the thing works if i want to earn credit through this third party institute do i have to do this before i apply to TESC or it ok if Apply and Enroll in TESC and then transfer credits later on during my time at TESC

3. What would be the best tuition plan for me Comprehensive (I like this plan where i can earn 36 credits in yr) or the pay per credit plan if i will try to earn credit outside TESC through SL , CLEP , SAYLOR ETC.

4.Should i apply for TESC first or FAFSA first .
