On my evaluation it shows GPA Requirement not met. I haven't taken any TESU courses and plan to test out. Do I need to take a 1 credit course like the cornerstone in order to have a TESU GPA?

Many users have graduated without a GPA, but one forum member (alzee, i believe?) was recently told that a GPA is needed. If that is true, it's a new requirement. I officially enrolled in March, have not taken any TESU courses, and my GPA requirement is "met" in all categories. Oddly enough, I believe alzee (or whoever the user was that asked) was just told this information in March.

You probably want to talk to an advisor to get clarification.

+1 on this, *sigh*. I think we need to do the dreaded cornerstone as the cheapest option now at $300.
My plan was to skip it by enrolling before May 25, but I would not have a course that would count for GPA.
I think other options such as taking a 1 credit course would do, but that would be $499 a credit. *sigh*

Yes, I was told that I needed a TESU GPA of at least 2.0 to graduate. My assessments show somewhat contradictory things, so I contacted advising via email and was informed I'd need to complete at least one graded course to meet that requirement. I registered for PLA-100-OL in the May term.
