TESU Class Schedule / Workload/ To much ?
#1
All,

Below is my plan to complete my degree at TESU. I'm a little nervous because I'm unsure about the level of difficulty involved at TESU. I had previously attended APUS and took 2 classes per term in "History". Mostly all upper level history classes where mid-terms and finals were 25-50 page research papers, essays and discussion boards.

I don't know anything about TESU? Very tough? I'm pretty confident this undergraduate schedule isn't too bad.

How about Graduate Level courses at TESU? Would taking two course per term or even three at the graduate level be a problem. I figure 3 is pushing it while working full time. But if it's doable. In 2017 I'd like to take 3 per term. Just knuckle down and get it done.

If you could comment on your experiences that would be great. I'm an adult learner. Military. Decent GPA previously at APUS with 3.8 GPA. Took around 10 classes there. I actually took all the classes there in reverse. Knocked out all the Upper Level 400 history classes. But didn't finish up the basic classes ie. English, Chem, Math all the easy stuff! Lol.

I could probably re-apply and get a degree there with 1 or 2 classes in history. Anyway ... Please take a look below and comment:



My goal for 2016:

May 2 - July 24
TECEP English Comp II (3)
TECEP Technical Writing (3)
Chemistry I w/Lab (4)
APS-402 (3)

(Register: April 22 - May 21)
June 6 - Aug 28
TECEP Leadership (3)
TECEP Political Science (3)
Chemistry II w/lab (4)
APS-400 (3)

(Register: June 26 - Jul 18)
August 3 - 25 October
APS-401 Capstone Project (3)

*Apply for graduation in December by Oct. 1

Mid-term difficulty
Finals difficulty

Do online classes at TESU prepare you well for the exams ?
Big difference in undergraduate to graduate level ? More writing ?

Can you work ahead ? Take Mid-term and Final early ?

Generally, individuals transfer most if not all allowed courses into the big three from easier sources, for cheaper as well.
Even with military discounts, this is true. You'll be paying $1500 for a course at the big 3, when a comparable yet easier course can be had for much less like, examples, $237 for Financial Management at Penn Foster, or $200 for 6 credits at study.com

As for graduate school, the big three are mainly recognized as check the box options. And it's way more expensive than Patten, Hodges, or WGU if you would like the same in recognition. For the cost of 2 courses out of the 11 required at the big 3 gets you a full masters at any of these mentioned.

First, I'm confused about your question of workload, and then you show TECEP's as part of your plan. These exams don't have a workload, except how much you want/need to study for them. The English Comp II and Tech Writing TECEP's are easy, you don't even have to study for them at all.

Second, there is no Leadership TECEP. There are Leadership courses (exams) available through CSU-Global for $250.

Most people on this forum would never pay $1500 for a Chem course that they could take through a CC or Straighterline for a couple hundred bucks. So you're asking the wrong crowd about that one, I think. Same with Quality Management (you can get it at CSU-Pueblo IS for $495).

Also, I don't think many people on this forum would consider a TESU masters program as it's very expensive.
