I messaged you quite some time ago regarding a degree option for myself. I have a few questions if you don't mind.
I have a friend that wants to do the ET degree program through TESU (if you have any suggestions on the best way to do this (fast and cheap) please let me know so I can help him).
First, I would like to know after you complete the pre-req courses how soon should you apply to TESU?
Also, how soon should you apply for the capstone? Whats the best way to save money for the capstone?
Also, can you send me the links to your spreadsheet and information for getting started because all of the links are not working for me.
I think you are very knowledgeable and will be able to help us.
thank you very much
Note: BTW, your PM is disabled. Basically - I'm in Asia, consulting/traveling for the next 3 years. Place all your credits into an ACE account, for CLEP and other tests, they keep a record. For a fee, you send the bulk of it when you're done to the school you decide.
1) Apply to TESU when you finish your general education courses or before June 1, as the catalog year requirements change each July, with the exception of last year, changes were made April 1. Send in your transcripts in batches at a time when you complete them.
2) There are no discounts for the capstone, it's a required course. The general education courses can be taken with the main providers such as Davar, Saylor, Shmoop, StraighterLine, Study.com - I would recommend applying for the capstone when you have the Study.com affiliate discount.
3) It's in the Beginners Guide, here's the newest post: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-Beginners-Guide-To-Getting-Cheap-Fast-College-Credit--24842?pid=244391#pid244391
