TES-100 Cornerstone: Lifelong Learning Can't be waived. - TESUAbroad - 02-10-2017
Unless I am mistaken, there is no waiving this course at this point. I was hoping to save $300.00. Oh well.
Response from TESU Academic Advising:
"TES-100 is a degree requirement and it will not be waived if you pay the $2,000 Residency Waiver Fee. Even if all other degree requirements are satisfied by approved transfer courses/exams, TES-100 is still required."

In the past, you could waive it by transferring in 104 credits (and was done automatically). So, unless this has explicitly changed, AA is wrong again.

Someone posted recently that you could have the Cornerstone waived as a Study.com affiliate.

Study.com works I just talked to them on the phone about it earlier. Also I got mine waived from having 104 credits back in November.

So you need to be an active member and take a TECEP during your active membership to waive it? Or can you have it waived without enrolling?

No need to take a TECEP - they waive it regardless just by requesting the affiliate membership be added to your application. My request was completed within about 48 hours and the updated evaluation was finished even before that. It showed the cornerstone waived without 104 credits being completed.

i was just auto enrolled in this course. I don't have 104 credits to transfer in yet. Do you at least get gpa points for this course?

You have to be an actively enrolled student for them to waive it. So yes, apply, using the study.com affiliate, then enroll in a TECEP.
