HEADS UP! Transfer Credit Policy Change - ajlm1984 - 12-16-2020
Effective Jan. 1, 2021, the University will accept a maximum of 90 undergraduate credits for a baccalaureate degree and 45 semester hours for an associate degree from noncollegiate providers regardless of the source of the credit. Noncollegiate providers are those with college credit recommendations from the American Council on Education (ACE) and the National College Credit Recommendation Service (NCCRS). The sources include credit earned from military training and education on the Joint Services Transcript (JST), corporate training, College Level Examination Program (CLEP), the Defense Activity for Non-Traditional Education Support Exam (DSST) and Advanced Placement Exams as well as credits earned from TESU approved educational providers.
If you intend to enroll in TESU and have accumulated more than the 45/90 credits, we will still accept credits above the 45/90-credit maximum provided that:
- You enroll in an undergraduate course for the January, February or March 2021 terms and;
- You submit your transcript(s) for all ACE and NCCRs recommended courses to us by March 1, 2021.
I have currently 72 credits in my evaluation, how much screwed I am?

Regarding the new email sent out by TESU
"Effective Jan. 1, 2021, the University will accept a maximum of 90 undergraduate credits for a baccalaureate degree and 45 semester hours for an associate degree from noncollegiate providers regardless of the source. Noncollegiate providers are those with college credit recommendations from the American Council on Education (ACE) and the National College Credit Recommendation Service (NCCRS)."
"If you have additional ACE/NCCRS transfer credit that you intend to apply to your TESU degree, we will still accept credits above the 45/90 provided that you submit your transcript(s) for all ACE and NCCRs recommended courses to us by March 1, 2021."
So we have until March to finish all noncollegiate provider courses

Seems like TESU will no longer be in the Big Three shortly... most people probably cannot get up to 114 credits in time

Depends on if you can get plenty of credits on a transcript and get them there by the deadline. Otherwise switch to COSC.

This is really sad news, for anybody not able to make it byMarch, they will have to change their entire degree plans... Or cough up the cash which was the whole reason of going this route in the first place. Might as well just go to a 'regular' school

This really messes with my plans. I wanted to take a break in January.
RE: HEADS UP! Transfer Credit Policy Change - Ideas - 12-16-2020
This will make some of the other sources way more valuable, sources where your credits go on a school transcript. 90 is still a lot. Someone could do some Gen Ed credits at those "collegiate" sources and still use Study.com for a bunch of their area of study credits.
